Interviewed by CNN on 07/07/2014 16:51, EE told the world:
I set "mailnews.headers.showUserAgent" to true, but the user-agent line
appears only in the headers for newsgroup messages, not for emails.  Why
is that?  The "mailnews" setting prefix should apply to both, not just
to news.  It is not an extension causing the problem, since it occurs in
safe mode as well as normal mode.  Is there any way to get the sender's
user-agent to appear in emails?

Only marginally related to the above issue (although some of the people
involved might like it)...

Is the "Display Mail User Agent" extension still supported? The last
update (1.6.9) is almost two years old; it still works, but it's a long
time with no updates...



Did it or will it display a Mail User Agent for an email that doesn't
have one in the source?

Of course, it cannot. Only the MUA ID in the headers gives any clue whatsoever as to what application created the mail. There is no majick fingerprint that would identify a message as being created by a particular mail client.

And, as we well know, SeaMonkey _DOES_ add that header.
