Nitpick: Mail *clients* generally insert an X-Mailer header.

AOL has enough mail pushing to do that it is not likely to bother parsing
client info for the version number and stamping X-Mailer headers at the
server side.

Maybe cracked copies of AOL, or maybe AOL doesn't insert a consistent
X-Mailer line from build to build.
