Pat, after applying updates since your initial report you should now be using Thunderbird 60.2.1. Is this still an issue?
If so, then the bug should also be reported upstream to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/. ** Changed in: thunderbird (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1798394 Title: thunderbird 1:52.9.1+build3-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 1:60.2.1+build1-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 breaks time format preference Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The latest security update of thunderbird 1:52.9.1+build3-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 1:60.2.1+build1-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 (upgraded 2018-10-17) breaks time format. pats@palladium:~$ locale LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_CA:en LC_CTYPE="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_TIME=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES="en_CA.UTF-8" LC_PAPER=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_NAME=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_ADDRESS=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_TELEPHONE=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_MEASUREMENT=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=en_CA.UTF-8 LC_ALL= pats@palladium:~$ date Wed Oct 17 10:43:39 EDT 2018 Thunderbird started displaying messages with times like "5:18 a.m." this morning.
