Not all mailer use X-Mailer. Others use User-Agent. With the following:
 grep -h '^\(User-Agent\|X-Mailer\)' fedora-devel-list -r | awk '{print $2}' | sed 's;/.*;;' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n


I get (for the mail saved in my fedora-devel-list mailbox, which may be biased):

      1 AT&T
      1 Mulberry
      1 Null
      1 SnapperMail
      1 Wanderlust
      2 Apple
      2 http:
      2 %p!0,0!
      2 Pan
      4 Loom
      5 Balsa
      5 Internet
      7 VM
      8 MH-E
     10 Mail
     16 KNode
     16 Mew
     20 SquirrelMail
     23 Sylpheed-Claws
     32 Gnus
     43 Sylpheed
     49 KMail
     91 Ximian
    134 Mozilla
    148 Thunderbird
    295 Mutt
    330 Evolution

There still seems to be about 200 mails not counted.
Evolution is still first, but with a lower share. Maybe Ximian is also evolution,
though. This is not very relevant, though, since mutt is second, this is 
certainly biased numbers.
