I'm sorry ... I got it by the author of my Mail Editor :)))
So I can't point you to some extended information.
I can only say that it works GREAT here ... but it is not of much help to
you, because you 1) don't live in middle europe and 2) I don't know the
exact meaning.

Hmmm I haven't understood your sentence fully :)
The problem is, that there is more than one way to set tz.
And it depends on the program whether it is interpreted correctly.
(as I already said tz=+0100 or whatever should work nearly everywhere, BUT
you have to manually correct it when DST begins/ends)
Sorry, that I couldn't provide you with additional help ... maybe someone
else here knows more about that topic ...
