which TZ timezones does date command recognize?

Hi,

date displays the time with a 2 hour offset on my system.
So I should set my TZ environment variable,
as adviced in an older e-mail

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-01/msg00463.html

The example there says export TZ=EST5EDT.

This does indeed work as expected. However
I am in MET (Amsterdam), but TZ=MET does not
work. How can I found out which timezones
date recognizes?

Thanks!
