I am sure I've done this before but I can't find it now. Where can we change the date for the Scalix server to the dd/mm/yyyy format - the real format of dates :-)?

Judi..are you telling me that those many hours spent at HP's training facilities were a waste of time ? :roll:

From the man page of omshowlog:

Code: Select all

Dates are specified as either "dd.mm.yy" or "mm.dd.yy" depending on the date format set by the Scalix language being used.  Times are specified as "hh:mm" using a 24-hour clock.


At home, my Scalix server is configured with LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 and the dates show as:

Code: Select all

REPORT                         IMAP Server Da(IMAP Server Pr) 31.08.06 17:20:53
whereas in the office, LANG=en_US.UTF-8 and the dates show as:

Code: Select all

REPORT                         Internet Mail (Incoming      ) 08.30.06 11:45:11


So, British is best ;-)

Cheers

It's all that grey matter that is creeping in!!

In the back of my mind was a thought that language had something to do with it but I just wanted to make you earn your bucks :-)

Thanks Dave.
