R. David Murray added the comment:

That is correct.  Most SMTP gateways add the header on submission if it is 
missing.  At least a few other MUA programs do not automatically add the Date 
header, they let the SMTP server do it.  I have one person who sends me email 
that saw this same problem (I had my server set to reject messages without the 
date header), and they weren't using smtplib to send.  (I think the sender used 
Exchange, though I don't remember for sure.)
