| | Re: How do I change the date format to Day/Month/Year in mail? I live in the UK. So for both of my computers (Win XP), I use local Regional and Language settings. By default, most programs (including Microsoft Office) recognize these settings and base date display upon the European format (dd/mm/yyyy). Unfortunately, WLMail gets confused. The latest version of the program does use the correct spell-checker - and Message Lists display dates correctly as dd/mm/yyyy. Consequently, messages that sent today are listed as 01/06/2009. However, a Recovered item in my Storage Folders was timed at 06-01-2009 10-19-52. Schizophrenia rules, OK?.
