Does anyone have a list of the possible time zone abbreviations that
can appear in mail Date: lines?  I've gleaned about 30 of them from
various BSD timezone() sources and other deductions -- e. g., TST is
Turkish Standard Time, ITA is the Italian time zone abbreviation --
but I'm stumped over a number of ones I have found.  For example,
where is SLT?

My local reference librarians tell me it is an interesting question.  :-)
