I can confirm this; comment #7 on bug 330126 suggests that there's a patch that might fix this, but it should be checked against this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=330126#c7

This bug should be fixed by the patch to bug 320181, which will go in after the tree has unfrozen due to the alpha.

Fixed by bug 320181 on branch and trunk when places is enabled.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
