I wish to see creation dates, not received dates. Sorting by time received does do a better job for me for TBUDL mail than sorting by creation time. Messages with time stamps reflecting incorrect times on the original senders computer fall appropriately into line. You may sort according to received time using the 'View | Sort by' options even though the received time column is not visible in the message listing. -- Ali Martin | Using The Bat! v1.38e mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 6) [ "Great spirits often meet violent opposition with mediocre minds ] -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --

So I wouldn't want to sort my messages by the Received date because many messages could have the same stamp if I download them at once. I sort my messages by the received time though I leave that column out of my mail listing. I find that it works more reliably at listing the messages in the correct order especially for my discussion list mail. This is because of this very time problem that you're talking about. Although you may download many messages at once, you still download them in a particular order which is the order that they end up getting listed. The original time stamp of the messages are unaffected by this process. TF What is the time zone of reference for the above times, i.e. in which TF time zone are you located? I can't actually check that, because your TF header on TBUDL comes from Dutaint/Indonesia. I am in the Central U.S. time zone, which is 1 hour before Eastern or 2 hours after Pacific. Is there a place in The Bat that I'm suppose to enter my time zone? I know I have selected the correct time zone in Win98. Since I am getting certain messages with the wrong Created time, could it be that the sender's computer has the wrong time zone setup? In other words, why would I get a message reply showing a time earlier than the one I sent (which is impossible, of course). How does The Bat know how to adjust the time to display it in the Created column? Maybe the second parties time is not set correctly. -- Ali Martin | Using The Bat! v1.38e mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 6) [ Fraud(n): A telephone number starting with "1-900" ] -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --
