Bug Description
When I come back to my PC and I have queued messages up they read like this:
[ICON] Ken VanDine 03:58
My clock says 15:58, I think that the timestamp should follow whatever time-format the user has defined in their settings. So if it's normal 12 hour time it should say 3:58pm or whatever without the leading zero. I had to think for a second on what that number was until I realized it was the time the message was sent to me.

Hmm, what we did is make it a translatable string so that it would match
your locale. The only place that I think that is configured otherwise
is in specifically the clock settings. I'm not sure if we should be
peaking into the clock settings in GConf and matching those or not.
If we do grab it, I'm not sure how we align the default settings with
the chance that someone has changed it. It seems like matching the
locale is better than any setting.
