Win98 SE
Thunderbird versions 1.0.2 and 1.0.6

On first login this morning (22-7-05), the date was missing from all new
received messages, both in the message list and in the individual message headers. 

I tried rebooting the computer to no avail. Restoring yesterday's Windows
registry also failed to fix the problem.

In case something had become corrupted in Thunderbird 1.0.2, I downloaded and
installed 1.0.6. The problem still exists.

Thunderbird had been working correctly since it was first installed three months
ago until computer close-down last night.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start Thunderbird
2.Check message index list
3.Check individual messages

Actual Results:  
No date is shown. Time is displayed where date is expected

Expected Results:  
Show date of received messages

we've always showed the time for messages from today. Tomorrow, today's messages
will be shown with the day of the week.

Please comment in the bug and reopen if this is still a problem on a current version of Thunderbird.
