Mutt

User Agent

It has always been possible to spoof the user agent by setting it in the .muttrc file, e.g.

my_hdr User-Agent: The New Pie by B.S. Johnson / 0.1

From the Release Notes for mutt-1.13.0: In response to repeated requests by the security minded, $user_agent is default unset. However, for those who wish to show their Mutt Love, you can still enable this yourself.

If you wish to do this, i.e. show the User-Agent as Mutt/version (date)

set user_agent=yes
