Thunderbird email displays incorrect time.

Our time zone (Vancouver, Canada) did not revert to Pacific Standard Time. We remained on Pacific Daylight Time. I changed the time on the computer system. However, when I receive emails in Thunderbird, it shows a time of one hour behind (PST) and not the correct time (PDT).

(Webmail does show the correct time.)

How can I change Thunderbird email to the correct time?

Thunderbird itself gets its time info from the operating system. It has no settings that affect this. You don't mention what your OS is, but we have heard here from a few other Canadian users who found that a recent Windows update fixed the issue for them.

Thank you Lin.

The OS is Windows 10, and I was able to get the update and it fixed the problem. Dean
