Yes, I just reproduced it in r5226. I created a test message from this 
address, and in the BCC line I put this address (which is auto-added by 
whatever preference that is to always BCC myself) and a second address. 
Then I closed the window with command-W and clicked Save to save as a 
draft. When I opened the draft from my Drafts folder (without restarting 
MailMate), the second BCC address was missing, although this one was 
still there. I added the second address again, closed, saved, and 
reopened the draft, and again it was gone.

I'm not sure how to set up a dummy IMAP account, but that does sound 
like a good idea! Currently the subject line and body of the dummy 
message are apologies for sending it out, just in case I ever do...
