The X-Mailer header is commonly used to identify the software/SMTP-client used to initiate and send an email.
For example, all emails sent from Facebooks servers (Instagram, Facebook, Whatsapp) have the following X-Mailer header:
X-Mailer: ZuckMail [version 1.00]

Why?
To make it easier for recievers to build filters depending on the X-Mailer header, and to just keep track on what kind of server the emails originate from.

Example header:

X-Mailer: Matrix-Synapse ${CURRENT_VERSION}
Or, the option to specify in the settings.
