no, because he knows it's from a different time zone. doesn't really
matter whether it's lunchtime at your place and breakfast time here.
the mail client should know either the time in utc or the local time
plus the local time zone where the mail was sent from. the mail
application (outlook, thunderbird, notes etc) will convert the
timestamp from your mail into the correct local timezone. behind the
scenes everyone's dealing with utc anyway.
