My guess is that it is the combination of "unseen" and "one_time" that
is doing this, because I recall previously doing some checking to ensure
that "unseen" on its work works ok with deferred deliveries.

I am glad you can work around it, because I think this is too tricky an
area to consider making any changes for the forthcoming 4.50 release.
However, I have noted the problem, and in due course I will take a look
and see what can be done about it, even if it has to be something
unpalatable like forbidding "unseen" with "one_time".
