you have to set the Timezone in the voicemail.conf file in /etc/asterisk.
time is stored in CUT, but reported based on the voicemail.conf file.

So I edited /etc/profile  to include the following two lines 

TZ=MST7
export TZ

Is that the recommended location and or method for setting this type of
environment variable?

That fixed the system time/date as reflect by running the date command at
the prompt.  But the voicemail timestamps are still on GMT. 

I found another (as of yet presumably unanswered) post on the astlinux
mailing list dealing with this exact same issue.

This post also talks about uClibc timezone issues.

Well turns out that /etc/TZ is actually a link to /tmp/etc/TZ    
Problem with my build (0.4.2) is that there is no TZ folder in
/tmp/etc.   Should I create one?  I am concerned that anything in
/tmp/etc would also not survive a reboot.  This is getting confusing.
