Comment (by Scott_N):

 FWIW... I was able to remove the X-mailer headers from all outgoing emails
 by adding the following code to my theme's functions.php file:

 {{{
 add_action( 'phpmailer_init', 'disable_xmailer' );
 function disable_xmailer( $phpmailer ) {
         $phpmailer->XMailer = ' ';
 }
 }}}

 (Note there is a single space character between the quotes.)
