            Bug ID: 317817
           Summary: Timezone set wrong in sending headers
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.10.1
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: orion2000za at yahoo.co.uk

If I set timezone to CAT (UTC +0200) Kmail inserts in header of sent mails that
it is in fact UTC +0204 - adding 4 minutes from somewhere.
I was made aware of this by Ben Cooksley when I mailed some issues to KDEPIM
developers mailing list. According to him this makes my sent mail to be seen as
possible spam by many systems.
I can not see anywhere else in my system or using Thunderbird that the timezone
gets +4 minutes added

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set timezone to Harare,Zimbabwe (CAT)
2. Start KMail, create a mail or reply, send it
3. Check headers in sent-mail, in headers you find (eg) Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2013
09:30:03 +0204
Actual Results:  
sent date set to +0204 instead of +0200, thereby creating problems with spam
checking systems

Expected Results:  
sent date set to actual timezone value, +0200
