This item is already on my bug list. The problem is that it not easy to
fix. I have been sent several idea which might work on different OS, and
at some point I mean to try them.

You would think that there is some standard system call that says "reset
the time zone to the default on this host", but so far I have not found
such a thing.

I don't want to just ignore time-zone information, as that would make
all Exim times GMT, which is not nice.
