Viewing the Date of Messages Received in the Past Week

Guest

One of the "features" of Outlook 2003 is the "Smart Dates" function, which
only shows the day and time of messages received in the past week. This is
annoying, as I would like to quickly see the date they are received as well,
without have to scroll over the day with my mouse. As an example, if I look
at my inbox right now, messages received on Wednesday simply say "Wed" and
the time. This forces me to first think of today's date, then count
backwards. Not a big deal, but I'd like to change it so the date is
displayed. I'm good at Googling and have not found an answer. Can anyone
help me out on this? Thanks in advance.
