Can anyone tell me why my emails received using Hotmail show a time 1 hour earlier than the time they were really sent.My computer clock is correct and regional setting are for GMT,but I can't see where I check to see if BST is selected. Thanks

    The time in the UK is BST. GMT is an hour behind BST.

    Do you have automatically adjust time for daylight savings ticked?

    Just got a fix for my problem if anyone is interested.

    1. In the upper-right corner of the page, click "Options."
    2. Under "Manage your account", click "View and edit your personal information."
    3. On the "Account summary" page, click the "Registered information" link (under your Birthdate).
    4. Under "Home Location," choose your correct country.
    5. Under "Time Zone," choose your correct timezone.
    6. Click the "Save" tab.
