In that
thread, I was informed that Tbird only considers the gnome settings,
so fixing the KDE settings was not affecting it.

So then, How do I change Gnome to use YYYY/MM/DD?
In Windows I always change to ISO standard, now that
I noticed that US is default that is bugging me.

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.

Does anyone know if a choice of date option is in Thunderbird 1.5 or whether
it can be changed in FC4?
