  1. mimecast: squelch test errors associated with timezone short IDs 

    The BST short ID is associated with three timezones, resulting in the
potential for three different Zulu timestamps, depending on which BST is
chosen by the date processor. Fix this for tests by using a non-ambigous
timezone short ID (which happily also agrees with the geoip data that we
use).

There is no correct fix that can be applied since the set of ambigous
short IDs is large and knowing which to apply would depend on knowledge
of the origin of the data (which may be possible, though complex with
the geoip data, but also may not be depending on how strongly tied to
geographical location the TZ of the timestamp is). The correct fix is
for the data source to not use short IDs. We do not control this.
