You are in GMT+0100 in winter and GMT+0200 in summer, see e.g.
<http://greenwichmeantime.com/local/europe/nl.htm>. GMT doesn't have
daylight savings, it's fixed.

Description:
------------
I just found out this on my windows XP machine:

background info:

- I live in the Netherlands (timezone= GMT+1)

When you enable the option to automaticaly adjust your system clock for
daylight savings (on windows' control panel), php's date() function and
the Date header in the mail function will return different time zones.

an example:
<?php
 $test= date('O');
?>

now $test is: "+0200"

But if I send a mail with php using the mail() function the Date header
is telling me +0100 (which seems to me is right because I live in the
Netherlands where timezone=GMT+1)

This bug can be caused by windows (returning the wrong timezone to
php's date() function). Or php's date() function is doing something
wrong itself.

I found this trying to figure out why my emails appeared to be sent one
hour later than they really were sent. (I use Mozilla mail and
appearantly it suffers from the same bug as php's date() function ).

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
        print(date('D, d M y H:i:s O'));

# This only goes wrong when you have "automaticaly adjust
# clock for daylight saving changes" on:
# control panel> Date and Time> Time zone
# set to enabled
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Sat, 02 Aug 03 01:17:02 +0100

Actual result:
--------------
Sat, 02 Aug 03 01:17:02 +0200
