Displaying Message Dates in Outlook Web Access

Issue/Question

My messages list only shows the day and time a message is sent. Can the year be shown as well?

Environment

  • OWA

Cause

Messages sent the same day only show the time they were sent. Messages sent within the last week show the day and time they were sent. Messages between one and two weeks old show the day and date they were sent. Messages two weeks and older only show the date they were sent.

Resolution

There is no way to force all messages to display the date and time in the messages list. Messages must be opened/previewed in order to see their day, date, and time sent.
