Right click on the message, choose Options. You'll see one or more lines
like below, with the first server to touch it at the bottom. Your mailbox
server is on top. If there are any servers in the list belonging to SBC,
then SBC doesn't know the internet
added by the sending mail program, but some servers add an x-arrival time
stamp below it.

Each time it passes through a SMTP server, it is tagged with the time and
time zone offset. In my example, it is first sent to a server in California
(Time Zone - 8) and is picked up by a server on the east coast (TZ -5),
which is 2 min fast (or the other two are 2 min slow). (The CA server holds
the mail for pickup, so the 15 min delay is expected - normally it should be
just minutes or seconds.)
Are the times and time zones in the mail header correct? IE, using my
example, an entry of 2:15 -0500 or 3:15 -0400 would indicate a problem with
the settings on the server that added the stamp.

i contacted SBC(which is my internet servise provider) and they said
that
their servers do not "know" they time
:
if your computer time zone and daylight time settings are correct for
your
area, then the mail server is set for the wrong time or time zone.

appears
as
12:00 in outllok 2003 happneds with every mail i get
its confusing me please help
Diane Poremsky said:BTW - the proper way to fix this if you have appointments created using the
wrong time and TZ - export the calendar to a CSV or Excel format then change
the zone to central and the time to the correct time. Import the exported
items and they will have to correct time.
I usually make a second calendar folder and move all the appointments to it
after exporting (use a table view, like By Category - select all and drag
to the new folder). This gets them off the calendar so I don't have dupes
but keeps them for reference, in case think something didn't import/export
correctly. When I'm sure everything is ok, I delete the new folder.
