Hi guys!
Is there any way to change the 'Sent' day/date format? Currently, it
displays, Today, Monday, Sunday... etc. Is it possible to display the
date
without the 'day'?

        No, there isn't.

There should be.

        Yep.


The date format can be changed for today, but not for the previous week's days. I've asked for this capability to be exteneded from only today to the previous week.

Copy your language file to your profile directory, and remove all but the following

; Opera language file version 2.0

[Info]
Language="en"
; The string below is the language name in its own language

Charset="iso-8859-1"

[Translation]

; Formats the M2 display of time today
67047="%y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S"


This is my prefered format: yy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss

See http://www.opera.com/support/tutorials/mail/advanced/ for parameter documentation

WISHLIST request

My current customization in profile/english.lng:

; Formats the M2 display of time today
67047="%y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S"

Let's add:
; Formats the M2 display of dates 1-7 days old
nnnnn=%A %H:%M:%S

This would allow users to customize this age period as well.
Let's also add
nnnnn=%Y-%m-%d
to allow customizing older date formats.

I for one want all dates shown in a single consistent format, and I want control of that fromat.
