The time zone may indicate where the machine is, but that isn't necessarily
the same as where the user is.  For example, there is someone in Australia
who uses a machine in California to send mail.  More commonly, a lot of
people in Washington seem to use machines at ISI to send mail.

What's going to happen to time zones when we have people sending messages
from Mars or manned space stations?  Will they use the time zone of their
country's capital?
