it's the MUA that is expected to add the header, and some MTA's add it 
if they receive mail without them. Courier, for example, has the 
possibility to generate the Date: (along with the Message-Id:) header, 
if it is told to (e.g. for local users).

Note that msmtp is designed to do the message submission, not creation.
but you can use Martin Lambers' wrapper if you need.
However I would advise to use mailx or mutt to send the mail.
