| 327829 | 2005-02-24 05:21:00 | Email Attachment Time Stamping I am having problems with the OS(NTFS) timestamp on saved email attachments. When I save an email attachment from Outlook 2000 the file date/time (as displayed by MS Explorer) is dated 13hours ahead of the time which I saved it. I have checked the date and time settings on my computer and they are correct. The time zone setting (Auckland, GMT +1200 with daylight saving) is also correct. I checked the email properties and the times on the email, eg sent time, delivered time etc, are OK. |

| 327830 | 2005-02-24 18:19:00 | Is it the creation date or the modified date you're looking at? The modified date should be the time the email arrived in your inbox, and the creation date the time it was saved to your HDD. | pixeldust (6619) | ||
| 327831 | 2005-02-24 18:48:00 | I find email times/dates somewhat confusing. If the message source is viewed, there are all sorts of times listed, especially if the email is fom another time zone. We are at present 13 hours ahead of UTC (Universal Coordinated Time) or GMT if you like. There will be the local source time quoted and the local NZ time which will say NZDT after it. It may be something like this that is happening to your attachments. |

The modified date should be the time the email arrived in your inbox, and the creation date the time it was saved to your HDD. When I look at the file properties. The modified date is the same time as the create date, which is the same the same time as I saved the attachment. This seems reasonable since, I had only saved it not accessed/modified it. Anyway both dates are 13 hours ahead of the actual save time. |
