Bug? in Mail

We seem to be having a problem with our /usr/ucb/Mail. It appears that
sometimes at the end of a long session, too many files are held in the
spool file rather than being deleted. The scenario goes something like
this:
read mail
save some mail
do some headers
send a little mail
save some more mail
delete some mail
...etc...
q
And all seems to work ok. (except that by then you have no idea how many
files it SHOULD have kept in spool, so I have no way of knowing if the
bug is here.)
What is happening is that some of the mail I saved is coming back the
next time I use mail.
Any ideas?
