Well, from the Exim docs...
timezone Use: main Type: string Default: unset The value of timezone is used to set the environment variable TZ while running Exim (if it is different on entry). This ensures that all timestamps created by Exim are in the required timezone. If you want all your timestamps to be in UTC (aka GMT) you should set timezone = UTC The default value is taken from TIMEZONE_DEFAULT in Local/Makefile, or, if that is not set, from the value of the TZ environment variable when Exim is built. If timezone is set to the empty string, either at build or run time, any existing TZ variable is removed from the environment when Exim runs. This is appropriate behaviour for obtaining wall-clock time on some, but unfortunately not all, operating systems. Do you define the timezone in the Exim config? We do the have it in our config. When I built our Exim, the Unix TZ was/is... TZ=US/Pacific Looking through the code, I can only find 1 line that deals with "Date:", in receive.c ... header_add(htype_other, "%sDate: %s\n", resent_prefix, tod_stamp(tod_full)); Although not entirely straight forward, tod.c is not that big and only seems to have one way to calculate GMT offset.
