[VoIP] DST change in Windows

[Steph Kerman]

That would make sense. 

When I was playing around with manual adjustments I found that although 
changing my TOD or TZ setting immediately changed the timestamp on the 
very next POP or SMTP message I sent or received, even closing and 
reopening the browser after changing the TOD or TZ settings did not seem 
to affect the timestamps on webmail messages.  I was sending test 
messages in both directions from my POP mail account to Yahoo and Gmail 
webmail accounts to see the effect. 

I did not reboot the machine though after making the TOD and TZ 
changes.  I found that the timestamps on the webmail messages were 
unaffected by the changes I made.
