See bug 204350.

This is yet another symptom of the general problem that Moz doesn't manipulate
eml files as if they were true mailboxes. 

BTW, if/when this class of bugs is fixed, will it be all together in Core,
separately in Thunderbird and MailNews, or bits and pieces in various places?

Add "message/rfc822" in summary for ease of search.

This has been fixed by the patch for bug 204350.
