Because this is a bug/shortcoming, repeating how Outlook
works *verbatim*. It's the thing I *hate* about Outlook as much
as you only can imagine... Subject to formal bug report, I
presume.
For comparison, look above how Pegasus handled this task.
Note, that the message I'm currently replying to was displayed
in my folder as of 12 Nov 1999, 2:41 AM (i.e. my local time)...
This reminds me of another TB's peculiarity... AFAIR, a bit ago
some of our American friends told us that TB doesn't recognize
the three-letter abbreviations for timezones (still) used in USA
(like EDT -- is there such?:-)) If this is still the case, you're
welcome to write another bug report, since RFC822 clearly
states that such abbreviations *have* to be delt with correctly.
