Yes.  Of course.  I probably shouldn't have used the word "display."  But
beginning with mutt development version 0.96.1 (I'm pretty sure it's that
one, that's when I first saw it), mutt began to create a "User-Agent:"
header instead of an "X-Mailer:" header according to newer RFC
specifications.

Except that in messages on this list created with versions of mutt from
0.95.7 through all the 0.96.x development versions and through versions
1.0pre1 and 1.0pre2, I've sometimes seen the "User-Agent:" header and
sometimes the "X-Mailer:" header.

These headers are not created with a "my_hdr" command, nor manually via
"edit_hdrs" editing (well, they _can_ be, but that would be in addition to
whichever of the 2 is already there).  

They're not arbitrary headers. They're generated automatically by mutt.

So what is it that determines which one is produced in the (full)
header-list?
