I use mac mail 2.1.1 on latest osX, it displays the "Date Received" in what ever time zone the OS is set to. You can see the field change in mail realtime when you move the time zone in system preferences.

Being mainstream is no assurance of correctness; MS Outlook Express is probably the most-used MUA on the planet, but it is well documented as

My recollection from dealing with it 2+ years ago is that while the Mac
Mail client wasn't bad in general, it had a well-know issue with not
properly displaying the timestamps on messages, in exactly the manner you described. Unfortunately, I don't recall the solution (other than to use Eudora instead!), as I just maintained the qmail side of things and didn't
have to deal with the clients (Thank God! :)).
