activity icon indicating copy to clipboard operation

Relative time in email is UTC and does not display time zone

Open LougheadL opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. Set activity notifications for events such as uploads, downloads, etc.
  2. Do one of the activities with notifications set.
  3. Receive a notification email.

Expected behaviour

Email should indicate the time of the event in a time format that is clear to the user.

Actual behaviour

Email time event shows with an unqualified timestamp such as "Yesterday at 11:26 PM," which is not the time zone local to the user but apparently UTC. If the user is in a time zone other than GMT/UTC then the user may be confused or alarmed, depending on the practical or security implications of the unexpected time of action.
