Hi,

Despite configuring the Timezone and Locale for the UK thunderbird always displayed the date in US format MM/DD/YYYY instead of DD/MM/YYYY Today I found an article on how to add an override to Thunderbird to display in UK format, however I prefer ISO Date format YYYY:MM:DD.

So if you are interested in knowing how, use the config editor in thunderbird to add the following entries, I added the time format as well just in case.


intl.date_time.pattern_override.date_short yyyy:MM:dd                                              type string
intl.date_time.pattern_override.date_medium type boolean
intl.date_time.pattern_override.date_long type boolean
intl.date_time.pattern_override.date_full type boolean
intl.date_time.pattern_override.time_short HH:mm                                                     type string
intl.date_time.pattern_override.time_medium type boolean
intl.date_time.pattern_override.time_long type boolean
intl.date_time.pattern_override.time_full type boolean


After adding the entries, restart thunderbird
