It shows just the time of all mails sent today because it assumes that
you know what day it is.
OK... but wouldn't it make more sense to list the date? I can understand
TODAY's things not being dated. With that being said, will the date field
change tomorrow? If it didn't, you'd have no way of when the mail was
received.
Yes the date field will change tomorrow to some format determined by your
locale which includes the date. Whenever I 'find' a 'bug' like this, I
think to myself, "Would the programmers really have made this big of an
error and not noticed it?" The answer is usually no and I figure out my
misunderstanding or what I am doing wrong/unusual. Especially in this
instance where Netscape uses the Mozilla code base for its mail client and
has been in this business for a while.
