Date Field in Email Message for Entourage 2004

[Administrator]

iMac G5, running OS 10.3.8.

I'm able in the list of my emails in my Inbox to view the date that it
was received, but for some bizarre reason, unlike the Netscape email
program I've used for the last 5 years, the date field isn't listed when
you click on an individual email and you view the individual email
message in the preview window.


For the life of me, I can not find how to make it so the date will show
up. I've looked in the Entourage Preferences and did a Google search.
No luck!!. In Netscape's email message program the email message header
fields for the individual email message that is shown in the preview
window have:

Subject
From
Reply to
Date
To

In Entourage's email, the headers only have:

Subject
From
To

How in the world do I get the date field listed on all of my emails????????


thanks,


Jim

Jim -- as far as I know, you don't. I have the same (albeit) mild complaint
about Entourage. Even though the List view shows the date, the actual
Preview pane does not. So when viewing an email in Preview, you must look
back to the List pane to get the date. You'll probably agree that this is,
on occasion, annoying. And then the date is relative -- so it might say
"Two weeks ago" or similar.

I agree that the date should appear as a field in Preview as well as in
List.

When you actually open an email item, however, the date is obviously
included.

My hunch is that I don't think there's a fix for this unless MS writes new
code...

Open the message in it's own window and select 'Internet headers' from the
view menu.
