How does computer time work?

[Catty1]

Maybe the clock on your friend's computer is inaccurate and needs to be reset.

Is she in a different time zone than you?

[Karen]

Yes, it is the clock on her machine that is set to the wrong time. I get nominations from all over the world, remember - and the time is always transmitted correctly, but if the sender's machine has the wrong date or time, the email shows it being sent, for example, on January 31 when it was actually sent (and received) on February 2nd, the person had just set their clock incorrectly.

Oh I see! thanks much.
