I experienced a similar problem in php 4.06, but the time was only off by 6 hours.  Now the time is off by 12 hours.  Here's a sample of the mail headers...notice the "Date" line:

This is similar in configuration to Bug #12680.

I too have stumbled unto this problem.  A workaround is to add the following "Date" header to the mail() function call.

"Date: ".date("D, j M Y H:i:s -0600")."\r\n"

In my case, I'm at CST so -0600 is what does it for me.  Change yours as necessary.

Here's how I use it in my code:

mail($emailToAddress,
$g_welcomeMessageSubjectLine,
$welcomeMessage,
"From: ".$g_sendWelcomeMsgFrom."\r\n".
"Date: ".date("D, j M Y H:i:s -0600")."\r\n");

The mail then arrives with the correct timestamp in the user's mailbox.

Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP.
Unfortunately your version of PHP is too old -- the problem
might already be fixed. Please download a new PHP
version from http://www.php.net/downloads.php

If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest
versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report
to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open".
Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP.
