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.


The preference mailnews.headers.showUserAgent tells Thunderbird what to
do when SENDING messages, not receiving them.  If you receive a message
from someone who uses an application that does not insert a header line
for his or her user agent, Thunderbird has no way to create and display
it.

Thanks, people. I get the picture now. Some email clients do not put the user-agent in a user-agent field in the header.
