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.
