I can't reproduce this on any of the systems I have access to:

8.0-CURRENT amd64    (build: 2008/11/07)
7.1-PRERELEASE amd64 (build: 2008/10/02)
7.1-PRERELEASE i386  (build: 2008/10/12)
7.0-STABLE i386      (build: 2008/04/19)
6.4-PRERELEASE i386  (build: 2008/10/02)
6.4-PRERELEASE i386  (build: 2008/10/02; different box)
6.2-STABLE i386      (build: 2007/08/02)
4.8-RC i386          (build: 2003/03/18)

P.S. -- You're playing with Maildir, aren't you?  :-)
