+# Thunderbird
+
+## Setting dateformat
+
+Usually the date format is not in AM/PM.
+Unfortunately, I'm American, so here's how I change it.
+
+1. Go to settings in Thunderbird.
+2. Change Date and Time Formatting to Regional settings locale.
+3. Go to config editor at the bottom of general settings.
+4. Create new config string intl.date_time.pattern_overrite.time_short.
+5. Format follows [datetime](https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/format_parse/datetime/) format, I use hh:mmaaaa.
+6. Restart Thunderbird.
