      Of the remaining 9638, there are 523 unique X-Mailer
references.  I disqualified 24 for being quoted, or random
X-Mailer discussion on NANOG.  (X-Mailer discussion seems
to be the ONLY thread that hasn't repeated itself in the 
last month.)

      The breakdown:

      Microsoft               38.71% (not even half the way to 90%)
      Mozilla                 11.41%
      Eudora                  10.86%
      ELM                     6.63%
      exmh                    5.25%
      Web Mail                5.20%
      Mutt                    4.70%
      New MH                  3.64%
      VM                      2.36%
      Mulberry                1.90%
      Gnus                    1.27%
      MH                      0.96%

      If we include the postings with no X-Mailer in the sample, 
Microsoft drops to 18.08% of the total -- I'm not aware of any
M$ email product that didn't include an X-Mailer header.

      Of course, about the only thing you can conclude from this
is that people with no X-Mailer post more often than anyone else ;)

Most of those are likely pine, which you can tell by looking at the
message-id...
