Could someone be depending on it?  Sure.  Is that likely enough to block this 
as a bug fix?  Personally I think not.  Appending to the mailbox when adding 
messages is, I think, the expected behavior, and always rewriting it is the 
surprising behavior.

The patch looks good to me, though personally I'd eliminate the extra blank 
lines.
