Thanks to both Derek Martin and Edward for this suggestion.
I set my TZ variable as follows (I'm in California, US):
export TZ=US/Pacific
That seems to do what I want. Now when I send an email, it has the time at
which I wrote and sent it in California.
I'll have to remember to change that when I travel to a different timezone,
of course.
FYI, on my mail server's machine (GNU/Linux), the list of timezone names is
the directories and file names under:
/usr/share/zoneinfo/
