    In both Microsoft Outlook Express and Outlook, the time showing of my received e-mails is 14 hours ahead of the true time. eg. mail received at 16.00 on 28th shows as received at 06.00 on 29th.
    I use MSN Messenger which shows correct times, the time in my PC's BIOS is correct and e-mails received to my Hotmail account show the correct time. I am using Windows XP and I wonder if my internet providers server could be set to the wrong time, or does anyone know of another reason this might occur. The e-mails I send out are OK, for example from my regular e-mail address to my hotmail address show correct time

    Yes, the received time is a function of your ISP's mail server.....
