EE's question was about them not appearing in email.
Yes. But you can find examples of emails in news.mozilla.org because of
the gateway between the mailing lists and the news server. :)
Sorry, I don't think we will see any emails on the mailing-lists from
the senders that don't have user-agents like my financial institutions,
Netflix, Redbox, or any of the others I don't see user-agents for, even
though I have "mailnews.headers.showUserAgent" set to true.
There is for example

which is shown in my header pane as 'X-Mailer:', thanks to Mnenhy. It is
not shown if i switch from 'Extended Normal View' to 'Normal'. Hmpf.
Looking at my obsolete patch from above it would have been shown as
'User-Agent:' in the Suite of 2003. Is SM now really so deteriorated,
that other notations of a user agent are ignored?
Seems so. Sigh.

My outbound mail all utilizes the X-Mailer header. It's worth noting
that neither 'User-Agent" or "X-Mailer" are specified in RFC 5322. As
such, it's perhaps less than kind to consider SM to be deteriorated when
the inclusion of either header is purely optional and in no way
addresses any particular RFC. At least, as far as I can recall.
