Scott, thanks for your reply confirming Thunderbird as time-zone aware.
I'm not able right now to check previous messages which I thought were in disorder.
I'll try to keep updated this post when I get some new ones in that situation.
Thanks

Thunderbird is definitely aware of time zones!

For example, your message (the one I'm replying to) was written at "Fri, 28 Aug 2009 09:04:52 +0200." I had to look at the raw e-mail message to see that.

Thunderbird shows the message as "2:04AM".

The reason it shows me 2:04AM is because I'm in central daylight time (which is UTC -05:00) so it's 7 hours earlier here than it is where you live. Because Thunderbird is time-zone aware, it converted your message to my time zone, so I'd see it relative to my other messages.

Indeed, it converts everything to the local time zone before showing it to you.

Lukas,
I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird. Do you know if it's aware of timezones, or can suggest me any other one that is?
TIA
