Normally see time stamps in inbox according to our local time, but firefox seeing it off by 3-12 hours....All timezone settings in CMOS of Computer and Puppy Linux 5.3.3 OS is set to UTC, all Google/Gmail time/timezone settings are proper..

When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.

(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache

Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.

(You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:

WIN: orange Firefox button or Tools menu > Options > Advanced
LINUX: Edit > Preferences > Advanced

On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")

(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these. While viewing a page on the site:

  • right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
  • Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"

Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
