Subject of the issue

I changed timezone in Dockerfile to my local TZ and created bitwarden_rs container with correct timezone. All logs have correct timestamp. Running 'date' command inside container shows correct date. However in information emails I still receive time in UTC zone. All timezone settings inside the container are correct.

Your environment

Bitwarden_rs version: 1.14.1-5471088e
Install method: docker

Dockerfile I use:

FROM bitwardenrs/server:latest
RUN rm /etc/localtime; ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles /etc/localtime; echo -n America/Los_Angeles >/etc/timezone
WORKDIR /
CMD ["/bitwarden_rs"]

Steps to reproduce

Change timezone in docker container. Enable Email nootification
Make sure 'date' in container shows correct result
Login from a new device
Check date in received email

Your account was just logged into from a new device.

Date: Tuesday, March 31, 2020 at 18:54 <- UTC timezone
IP Address:
Device Type: Chrome

Expected behaviour

Date should be according to docker's container timezone

Actual behaviour

Date in UTC
