STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Commercial Internet System (MCIS) version 2.5.



MORE INFORMATION
The timestamp on the message list of the folder page is not displayed by default. To display the timestamp, the registry value displaytime must be added.

WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

To add the registry value, perform the following steps:  Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe). Locate the following key in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\MCIS25\HMI

 Select the display time from the data tree. On the Edit menu, click DWORD, and then type in the value as 1.

If the value of DWORD is 1, the timestamp is displayed in the folder list. If the value is 0, then only the date is displayed. Quit Registry Editor.</ol>

After you change the registry value, stop and restart the Web service. Type the net stop w3svc command at the command prompt to stop the Web service. When it has stopped, type the net start w3svc command to restart it.
