In Windows I always change to ISO standard, now that I noticed that US is default that is bugging me. Stephen Don't know about Gnome (isn't that the imp being advertised on tv for Travelocity says Tom, ducking under table), but Kmail has the ability to view the date in several formats including custom but KDE couldn't/wouldn't put that FEATURE in the globals. Go figure.
