nodemailer
sets the current time as UTC in that field.
Why do you want this field in local time?
if we receive a server downtime alert in email box from uptime-kuma, the email shows the local time which is in CEST, but the time in email header shows the time in UTC, which makes the person confused regarding the actual time the issue happened.
the last mail with monitoring is recevied on 10h50 it's the good time but in the mail :
Time (UTC): 2024-08-06 08:50:44.225
I have attached the screenshot.
How can i show the local time on email header too ?
The screenshot included by you does not show a header.
That part of the notification shows the servers timezone and local time since 1.22.0
.
https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma/commit/343a1d3344779ea10933637cae1c0f46eadfd90b#diff-127e639176c0431697ef001140696f0bfb56aa113da83f20a9ffa26d450804e1
You can change the servers timezone in the settings
In smtp.js, i have changed:
bodyTextContent = ${msg}\nTime (CST): ${heartbeatJSON["time"]}
;
to
bodyTextContent = ${msg}\nTime (${heartbeatJSON["timezone"]}): ${heartbeatJSON["localDateTime"]}
;
and still shows the same issue.
The email notification received from uptime-kuma is attached.
Please let me know how this can resolved.
Double check your version and update.
As said: this was changed as requested in v1.22.0
..
PS: assuming you have made a typo in (UTC)
above, otherwise talk to the person who forked/...
okay, let me check.

My Email Alert (1) Testing
See the screenshots attached.
I cannot see that the time in notification has been rectified in the versions above v1.22.0, as the current version mine is v1.23.13.
Thank you.
That does not match what you have reported previously.
Here is the code for 1.23.X
=> no Time (CST)
as reported here
What have you set here in the settings?
The email showing UTC time instead of IST
That is a different part of the email.
The Date-header is indeed set to UTC by nodemailer
, but that is not the line (Time ...
) you reported here.
Brings us back to my intial question:
Why do you want the headers (not message-content) in local time?
hi,
the code in the smtp.js for the version "1.23.13" is correct as shown below and in the screenshots attached.
bodyTextContent = `${msg}\nTime (${heartbeatJSON["timezone"]}): ${heartbeatJSON["localDateTime"]}`;
I have attached the screenshots, please have a check.
We need the time in email headers in local time as the techs in the monitoring a getting confused by the time said in email headers.
Why are your techs looking at the raw mail headers in the first place? Headers are not really meant for humans, rather for machines or programs. All email programs that I know of just convert times to localtime. Converting from UTC in the display layer (in this case: mail-program) has advantages by putting the blame of having incorrect timezone-handling upstream. See The Problem with Time & Timezones why I would like that handling as upsteam as possible.
The time is included in the body..
Thank you, it has been fixed now. Thank you for the support

📝 Describe your problem
Hi,
The email notifications received from uptime-kuma has the time in UTC in its email headers instead of specifying the local time.
Is there a fix for it ?
Can we do something to sort this issue to dislapy the local time in email headers ?
I have checked deploying the application via both docker and without using docker.
Thank you.
