For information about the differences between Microsoft Outlook Express and Microsoft Outlook e-mail clients, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

257824 OL2000: Differences Between Outlook and Outlook Express



SYMPTOMS
The preview time in Outlook Express is changed by one hour when there is a change in Daylight Saving Time.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the Received Time column uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). GMT does not change with a change in Daylight Saving Time.



WORKAROUND
The original time is still available by right-clicking the message, and then clicking Properties. The time shown in the message's properties is the e-mail header time recorded by the e-mail server; it is not affected.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
