It's not a bug, as it works just fine with the Postfix server (i.e.
Dovecot). It (Apple's Mail Client) also works fine with Apple's dot-
Mac and OS X Mail Server(obviously), but also Google's IMAP services,
Yahoo's IMAP services, and others. This hardly qualifies as a unique
bug on Apple's end (particularly since their apps are standards
compliant to a fault, almost).
I really do feel that this kind of dismissive attitude of things
related to Apple and Mac OS X is what stands in the way of pro-active,
and positive development, sadly.

My feeling is that you are right, it should be looked into, although
this is the wrong forum to post bugs in the Leopard mail client.

No, of course not, which is why I carefully worded my subject line.
I've used it under Tiger and its Mail Client (Mail.app v2.0) since Day
One, and never had an issue.
This issue only surfaced, and was reported in multiple places, since
the release of Leopard 10.5 and the associated Mail Client (Mail.app
v3.0).
