   Does this happen with "emacs -Q"? cause it never happened to me.

Even with -Q.

   Or perhaps you started Rmail from this window configuration:

    +-----------+----------+
    |                      |
    |      *scratch*       |
    |                      |
    +-----------+----------+
    |        rmail         |
    |                      |
    +----------------------+

   in the first place??

No, initial window configuration looks like this:

    +----------------------+
    |                      |
    |      *scratch*       |
    |                      |
    |                      |
    |                      |
    |                      |
    +----------------------+

But if rmail would split into three frames, based on the window
configuration you mentioned, then I would consider it a bug as well.
Atleast, it was not the behaviour of rmail before the mbox merge.
