When I get a calendar notice under kmail, the time is displayed as standard 
time NOT daylight time. All my settings appear to be correct:
here is a fragment of what was sent:
DTSTART:20050607T180000Z
DTEND:20050607T190000Z

For EDT, this should display as 2:00PM to 3:00PM (EDT)
What displays is:
Start Time:  2005-06-07 1:00 pm
End Time:  2005-06-07 2:00 pm
Duration:  1 hour

System SuSE 9.3
Timezone US/Eastern
HW clock set to local time (I dual boot into Windows XP :-(

## Path:                System/Environment/Clock
## Description:         Information about your timezone and time
## Type:                string
## ServiceRestart:      boot.clock
#
# Set to "-u" if your system clock is set to UTC, and to "--localtime"
# if your clock runs that way.
#
HWCLOCK="--localtime"

## Type:                string(Europe/Berlin,Europe/London,Europe/Paris)
## ServiceRestart:      boot.clock
#
# Timezone (e.g. CET)
# (this will set /usr/lib/zoneinfo/localtime)
#
TIMEZONE="US/Eastern"
DEFAULT_TIMEZONE="US/Mountain"

Additionally, my KD panel clock displays the correct time as does the date 
command:
gaf@sauron:~> date
Tue Jun  7 08:49:58 EDT 2005

It just seems to be KDE when displaying calendars sent from others.
Any ideas?
