I've been doing a lot of testing and can now reliably reproduce the one stamp bug.
It's not directly caused by keeping RODEX open during a stamp counter reset. (Indeed, I don't believe the server even knows if your mailbox is open.) Rather, it's caused by
sending mail without "initializing" the stamp counter.
After a reset, you need to click one of the RODEX icons (either the main one, or the one that only pops up when you have unread mail). This not only displays the mailbox UI (or hides it, if it's already showing), but also forces the server to "initialize" the stamp counter. Once this is done, the stamp counter will work normally until the next reset; you can log in or out as many times as you want without needing to reinitialize the counter.
However, if the counter is not initialized, then the next message you send will drop you down to one stamp.
So this is okay:
1. stamp counter resets
2. open RODEX <- initializes stamp counter
3. write mail
4. check name
5. send
(This is the most common case.)
This is also okay:
1. open RODEX <- possibly initializing stamp counter, if not already done earlier
2. write mail
3. check name
4. stamp counter resets
5. close RODEX by clicking RODEX icon (
not the tiny X button!) <- initializes stamp counter
6. send
This is okay too:
1. open RODEX <- possibly initializing stamp counter, if not already done earlier
2. stamp counter resets
3. log out
4. log in
5. open RODEX <- initializes stamp counter
6. write mail
7. check name
8. send
(Note that in the above two examples, RODEX is open during a reset, but you don't experience the stamp bug.)
But this will bug you, leaving you with only one stamp:
1. open RODEX <- possibly initializing stamp counter, if not already done earlier
2. write mail
3. check name
4. stamp counter resets
5. send
Until they fix this bug, I suggest not trying to send anything when it's close to midnight. If you absolutely must, click the RODEX icon just before sending to minimize the chance that a stealth reset will cause you to get bugged.
