Date/time received
I have the following in my standard reply template: On %DOW %DATESHORT at %OTIME, you wrote: However, I've noticed that the date that comes up is not the send date and time of the message, but the time that I downloaded the message. How can I set it to show the send date and time? Graeme -- If it can't be expressed in figures, it is not science; it is opinion. - L.

How can I set it to show the send date and time? You need to change %OTime to %Time %OTime gives the original messages time. While %Time gives what you want, i.e., the current time. These macros give the current times dates etc., i.e., when the macros are executed. This may turn out to be very different from when the message is actually sent. Currently, there's no way for a macro to generate the current messages actual sending time, unless you execute the macro just before hitting send. - -- -= allie_M =- | List Moderator TB! v1.63 Beta/10 on WinXP Pro SP1 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Comment: My Public Keys - http://www.ac-martin.com/pgpkeys.html iEYEARECAAYFAj7oXRIACgkQV8nrYCsHF+KSWwCfTxedc1amSmI65oJq3n2iNYPp AmIAn14IqXRDlWs04EuVHEHjrUrBzRco =eZ4s -END PGP SIGNATURE- Current version is 1.62r | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

In the message header of the mail you sent to this list, this line appears: Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2003 11:07:35 +0200 You'll notice my reply duplicates this, but in my local time.
