Receive email with local timestamp? [Solved]

0

Hey all. I got a contact form up on my site which allows people to send emails to me, but the timestamp in the emails are UTC I believe rather than my local time. Is there a way to set this or adjust the timezone?

In which region is your website being hosted? this could be why, as it may be going along with the region its based in

You can use these links to help yourself https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/working-with-timestamp-with-time-zone-in-your-amazon-s3-based-data-lake/ ^s3 data lake timestamp info

However there is this link that states that s3 timestamps cannot be changed, but it is from 2015so it could be outdated https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31312292/how-to-change-amazon-aws-s3-time-zone-setting-for-a-bucket#:~:text=There%20is%20no%20way%20to,5%20minutes%20for%20signature%20V4).

  • Someone told me that email is normally sent in UTC end to end and gets translated on the client side, sure enough he was right. My email client wasn't using my local time zone in the settings. My bad.
