It's present in most mail messages I receive, and any I send.  I take it
it's not in the mail RFCs although it is in the news ones.

(Correction to the above - PCElm and VIEW do have it, most UNIX ones
seem not to.  It's in some others as well where I can't identify the
software.  I suspect it depends on whether the implementer has been
writing news software first and has reused the code <g>...)

Which explains why messages from people using Turnpike don't have it.
