Time Zone

Since change to Outlook 365, my email receipts are timed with wrong time zone eg

 

Friday, March 25, 2011 7:39:51 AM (UTC) Monrovia, Reykjavik

 was deleted without being read on Monday, March 26, 2012 6:41:23 AM (UTC) Monrovia, Reykjavik.

 

Is this because BT have the wrong time zone on their email server?

Hi swansojb,

 

If you go to our website http://myoffice.bt.com, and login to the manage services section, once logged in click on your email, this will take you to the login screen for the online version of office 365.  When you first login to office 365 through our website you can state what time zone you are in. You can also change the time zone you are in though the website too.

 

Regards

Something definitely not right. UK is NOT on UTC at this time.

 

UK is on UTC+1   ; also known as BST

 

Where your email says "Sent: 17 April 2012 13:24:10 (UTC) Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London" then the time of your sending would be 2:24pm local (ie BST) time

I agree.

My PC Zone time is set as GMT but automatically goes to BST which all my clocks show. Whilst it states UTC in the message the time is actually GMT + 1 and the is correct. message was 1324 BST

 

It is the second one that gives Monrovia etc that started only when BT shifted to Office 365 for email that I really could do with getting rid of as it is confusing and unnecessary, but I don't know what initiates it.
