Allow timezone change for message trace
Currently message trace timezone is set to UTC 0. This is really annoying. We should be able to change the timezone for this. There are posts on the forums going back to 2012 requesting this feature... please implement it.

the Exchange Admin Message Trace config page let's you set your timezone.....you can say I want from X time to Y time in that time zone....but then the results pop up in UTC time. What a pain! I always have to convert to figure out what's going on. It's enough issue that I have to figure out a problem, with out y'all forcing me to calculate time zone differences just to figure out what happened to my mail!

Can you please give us the capability to adjust time zone on the message trace function. It is very confusing when looking up emails.

Please fix this MS! It makes it very difficult to troubleshoot! As Tee mentions, it is fixed in some places, please fix it in the rest (Starting with the message trace in Exchange for example?)

Seems Microsoft have fixed this in the new Office 365 Security & Compliance centre. The Message Trace function shows in the searched time zone.

It's been one year since I last posted about this and it's not fixed. Microsoft, you need to get your act together! People are crying out for this and you're ignoring it!!!

I have some problems validating an Exchange external connector and this "phased out" message trace make it more difficult. The same problem persists in both message trace from EAC and "Office 365 Security & Compliance" from where I need an "extended report" that cannot be matched with the other party server report. :-(

This is very bad to hear that Microsoft has not been resolved so long.

The whole point of looking a message trace is to debug the sending of mail over a timeline between the server / client. Put a 'convert to timezone' feature in there which maps over-the timezone column with an adjustment value plz!

Absolutely amateurish that this has not yet been fixed

This should be a bug! Message trace results is showing double additions.
8:00 AM message in (UTC +4) is showing as 4:00 PM in results with header showing as (UTC +4).

UTC time tracking is annoying and confusing. Please implement current time zone.

If you run the message trace using the new 'Security & Compliance Center', the times are in the selected timezone. Test it yourself here: https://protection.office.com/#/messagetrace

This is a must... I'm sure some admins won't even notice it's in UTC. I came here to post this idea, and years later it's still not implemented!
This should be automatically picked up from the user's timezone, but also be changeable to another timezone as needed. -

When you are using Message Trace it usually mean you have a problem. you don't need to be trying to figure out the time also. please fix so we can set the time zone.
