axel_2078 Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 The clock in the system tray on my Mandrake box at home reflects the right time, but the emails sent from the box don't. My wife just sent me a couple emails from home and the sent time was one hour ago. I was talking to her on the phone when she sent them, so I know they didn't arrive an hour late. What's the deal?

chris z Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 in Mandrake Control Center->system->time & date set your time to UTC & answer "no" to "are you using GMT" (unless, of course, you're on GMT, then answer "yes"). if you're using KDE, do the same in Kontrol Center->system->time & date. reboot, & during boot check your BIOS clock to make sure that has the correct time setting before booting into MDK again. if it doesn't, correct it there too. i had the same problem in Kmail a while back & that's what fixed it for me.

coverup Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 axel_2078, is your box dual boot? Setting clocks to UTC may cause your Windows clock go crazy. If it's a double boot, follow chris's suggestions, then reboot into Windows and check whether you have correct time setting in Windows.
