Email times displayed as UTC
Hi,
I'm having a weird display issue in Mail. All emails show in the list with times that are UTC instead of PDT. My date and time and international system preferences are correctly set to display Pacific Daylight time (Los Angeles) in standard American date format. Apple Mail is the only program that isn't obeying that setting.
To make this more interesting, I've configured Mail in a non-standard way. Since there's no obvious way to lock out access to Mail other than to create a separate user account (which doesn't meet our needs for this system), I created an encrypted sparse disk image and moved ~/Library/Mail/ into that disk image. I then created a symbolic link to point ~/Library/Mail/ to the disk image volume.
This work around is working out perfectly and provides me a way to secure access to email without creating a unique user account. The only funky thing appears to be this date display issue.
I know that the disk image implementation is non-standard and probably not recommended, but it's the only way I could figure out how to secure access to my mail within a shared single user account (which I need for other reasons).
Any ideas on how to correct this date display issue?
Thank you,
