I'm glad I'm not alone in this, Apple's Mail app used to display Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/etc for the last week of email before switching to numeric dates. It would drive me crazy as I mentally work with dates and having to constantly check "ok what date was last Tuesday", "ok what date was last Saturday", introduced needless complexity.
Someone must have spoken up, because it's now as follows: the time(for today's email), "Yesterday", then the numerical dates.
On a tangent: Maybe one of our german friends can answer if the day before yesterday is displayed as "vorgestern", since that's part of the german lexicon.
Second tangent: While we're at it, can English finally standardise what "next <day>" means. For example I'm writing this on Saturday, and "next Monday" is permitted to mean either in 2 days time or in 9 days time.
