Ubuntu 11.04 .. How to change the Date format in Evolution

[malel]

I have been trying for some time to get the time changed in Evolution to read day month year but even though I change it in the preferences it does not change it in the emails. Does anyone know how to do this or is this a known fault of Evolution

Evolution uses the Gnome Locale settings for the location that you installed your system in.

Open Edit > Preferences > Contacts > Date/Time Format and select the format you want.

Good Luck

Thank you for your help folks . I had tried that but it still wont change the email headers to the date I require dd/mm/yy . The emails I have in my inbox were downloaded from Yahoo.com and the three that I have just received just say Yesterday ....PM or Today ....AM

What about any email before "Yesterday"?

Mine shows the date in dd/mm/yy format.

Good luck

Thanks Plucky . I have got it right now . Changed the table column in Preferences>Mail preferences>Headers>Date/time format to %dd,%mm,%YY and my emails come up how I want it.
Cheers
