Date & Time Stamp on Outlook Read Receipts Show Monrovia, Reykjavik

Thank you for the very quick reply. I'm using Outlook from inside Office 2016. I had set my time zone to Eastern U.S. inside Outlook and also inside Windows 10. I don't use Outlook Web app, but I went to outlook.com and my time zone there was set to UTC -5:00 (Eastern Indiana). I reset that to U.S. and Canada Eastern Time Zone. Do I have to go to yet another place to reset my time zone? Seems pretty redundant, to me.

Outlook.office.com also shows Eastern U.S. time zone. I don't know where else to set my time zone.

Hi,

 

I would like to know what type of account you have configured in Outlook.  (POP3, IMAP, Exchange ActiveSync or an Exchange account)

What is the domain of the Email address that you are using?

 

If you are using Microsoft exchange account you might need to get his region changed from your account admin for the exchange account.

 

Assuming that you are using a normal account not an exchange, let us go to the web mail of that particular e-mail and check the date and time settings there.

 

Hope this information helps you. Please let us know if you need additional information.

 

Thank you.

I received a link to an article on https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2800633 that detailed how to set one's time zone. I went to my account at https://outlook.office.com/owa/ and checked. My time zone setting is UTC -5:00, Eastern Time (U.S. & Canada). This still is a mystery to me. However, since I use UTC on a daily basis, it's not a big deal--just a mild annoyance. It's now just the principle of the thing.

Thanks for all your help,
