New submission from Piotr Lewandowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
#v+
$ umask
0077
$ stat /tmp/foobar
stat: cannot stat `/tmp/foobar': No such file or directory
$ python -c "from mailbox import mbox; m=mbox('/tmp/foobar',
create=True); m.add(''); m.close()"
$ stat -c '%A' /tmp/foobar
-rwx------

Bug is probably present in _create_carefully() function in mailbox.py.
os.open() takes mode argument (which defaults to 0777) but it's not
supplied there.
#v+
$ grep -A2 'def _create_carefully' /usr/lib/python2.5/mailbox.py
def _create_carefully(path):
"""Create a file if it doesn't exist and open for reading and
writing."""
fd = os.open(path, os.O_CREAT | os.O_EXCL | os.O_RDWR)
