How do I adjust the header : left, middle, right etc to select date/time that is the same as that of the message on sending msgs.

Cannot find the list of format controls for such when in print preview, print, options (say centre),, custom, format controls etc.

I do NOT want today's date/time only e.g., when the message was sent or received (i.e., local date/time).

The only way I have found so far is to print the message source which can be a bit long. Using Thunderbird 24.4 under Linux with Mageia v4 distro (all fixpacks etc).

Nope does not appear to offer what date is used. I need to be able to select the send date or the received date.

The date offered is the date time printed. You do not get the option to modify which date and time is used. If you feel it is not correct, simply remove it.
