There are several "won't fix' bugs filed regarding this that I'll not
attempt to bother you with just yet. Please (from a terminal) do the
following:

1. Cut&Paste&Post the output of the following command and post back here:

locale

2. Enter the following. It will bring up Evolution - please verify that
your email times show 24 hour vs am/pm and that the local clock on your
panel display remains at its current setting:

LC_TIME=en_DK.UTF-8 /usr/bin/evolution

If that works, then we can try to set it on a more permanent basis.
