Really?  Grazy!

I cannot reproduce this here - would you mind doing

  $ LC_ALL=C(or what do you use?) MAILRC=/dev/null \
    mail -n [OPTIONS YOU USE] foo

to generate something reproducable?
I'm practically working on Linux since end of August 2015 and
i have not yet seen anything like that.  That is, once yes, but
that went away after a GNU LibC update.  So my ArchLinux is
up-to-date regarding kernel and libraries.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Ciao!
