The bibliography for rfc822 references:
ANSI. "Representations of Universal Time, Local Time Differen-
tials, and United States Time Zone References for Information
Interchange," X3.51-1975. American National Standards Insti-
tute: New York (1975).
I don't have access to that document to check it. It would be
interesting to know if C99 is contradicting an ANSI standard or merely
established MTA practice for 'not telling you' timezone representation.
