Mail systems I am moving from display the date & time with the messages. I need this displayed to determine aging and importance of received mail. When archiving/saving old mail it helps filing mail off and not duplicate archived messages.

Thunderbird displays time and date for all messages except for the present day messages. The time only is displayed for today and the date is appended at midnight.
