Timestamp puzzler

S

S. Craft

When I download messages from my POP account, the timestamp on the messages
is one hour and ten minutes behind where it should be. I can log into my
webmail client and the timestamp is correct before I download messages. The
timezone is correct (both in Outlook as well as in the system) on my
machine. I've set the account up in Outlook and Outlook Express on two
different PCs, and the same symptoms persist. It would seem, therefore,
that the problem is on my mail server somewhere, but I've checked everywhere
in the server preferences and contacted the hosting company, and we can't
find anywhere else to look.

I know the first reaction is to double-check the time zone, but believe me,
I've checked it many times. In any case, if it were a time zone issue, I'd
think that the time would be exactly one hour off -- that I could fix. One
hour and ten minutes is a little more difficult for me.

I'm not 100% sure that I'm posting in the right place, because at this point
I'm not sure if this is some Windows setting that I'm missing, some
Outlook/OE setting I'm missing, or some server setting I'm missing, but if
anyone has any ideas, I would certainly appreciate hearing them. This thing
is driving me nuts.

Thanks in advance.

Date/Time is always computed based on what is found in the internet headers.
So in the case of the "Received" time, you look at the first line that
reads:

Received: from <some host> by <some host> with <some type of server
