I don't use Hotmail, but this sounds like a setting to adjust automatically for British Summer Time, which will probably be called Daylight Savings Time. Is there something like Options or Preferences where this can be maintained...?

Haven't yet found anywhere that gives me these options. It's not desperate but annoying.

hotmail seems to (as far as I can see) doesn't have a BST setting, just time zone based on the country you tell it you are in... so you may have selected a country 1 hour different from the UK...

The setting should be here...

Thanks for the helpful suggestions - I went on the link provided and my country is shown as England and Time zone as GMT London - still an hour wrong (it was also wrong before the clocks went forward).
