| | Re: Show date and time of incoming email in Windows mail Are you saying there is no Sent column? Or, there is a Sent column but that field in the message header is blank? Which antivirus are you running?

Check the boxes for the columns you want. -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM http://www.fjsmjs.com |

| | Re: Show date and time of incoming email in Windows mail You might be asking this. I activated both the Sent and Received columns in Windows Mail v 6.06 which shows me the date and time that I downloaded the email from my mail server, not the date and time that the Sender originally sent this. So if I check email on March 30 at 11:00PM about 100 emails will come in as "received" with the same time, march 30 at 11:00pm. Thus I cannot tell when the senders really sent me an email form their side. Sometimes this can be very important information, in customer service. -- cicorp Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |

| | Re: Show date and time of incoming email in Windows mail The "Received" time is not the time you download the message. It is the time that the message arrives on the incoming mail server. Your download time could be much later. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (WLMail) "cicorp" <cicorp.374dk7@xxxxxx-mx.forums.vistaheads.com> wrote in message news:cicorp.374dk7@xxxxxx-mx.forums.vistaheads.com...

| | Re: Show date and time of incoming email in Windows mail I'm glad that someone else is having the same problem w/ time & date on incoming e-mails--I thought I was having a Senior Moment. I've been away for four days and wasn't able to check my messages. When I did today, I was surprised to see that none of the messages had the date or time recorded. That's never happened before. And, I did not send out an automatic Out of Office reply. Any ideas?

| | Re: Show date and time of incoming email in Windows mail Missing time stamps are a totally different problem than a time stamp that is inaccurate by a few hours. Your problem could be caused by a non-compatible antivirus.

| | Re: Show date and time of incoming email in Windows mail I use AVG Anti-Virus, and have never had a problem with my e-mail -- e.g., the date and time have always been recorded on my messages.

| | Re: Show date and time of incoming email in Windows mail Did you use the standard install for AVG? If so, expect problems to show up eventually if you keep it that way. If you don't like this, uninstall it and then do a custom install where you tell it to leave out the parts that scan email. http://free.grisoft.com/ww.download?prd=afe "Toni Doyle" <ToniDoyle@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:99F99430-CE83-4054-A436-539DA1D2C484@xxxxxx Quote: >I use AVG Anti-Virus, and have never had a problem with my e-mail -- e.g., > the date and time have always been recorded on my messages. > > Thanks, > Toni Doyle > > "Gary VanderMolen" wrote: > Quote: >> Missing time stamps are a totally different problem than a time stamp >> that is inaccurate by a few hours. >> >> Your problem could be caused by a non-compatible antivirus.
