Pretty much everything in an email header can be spoofed so I wouldn't trust anything in it. Also there are many open smtp servers all over the world so just looking at the time zone will not provide much information as to where the email came from. In the future please be sure to post your question to the proper forum or it is likely that no one will help you.
