I did not think that this was supposed to be possible, but somehow I'm managing (by error and accident) to put two entries in a prefs plist with the same key.

That's better than Mail-

my com.apple.mail.plist contains no less than SEVEN (7) "UseSmallMailboxIcons" entries

(luckily, all with the same value)


It's not luck. It's a bug in the PListEditor. If you view the prefs using a text editor or using the defaults CLI program, you'll see that there's only one entry. PListEditor has a problem displaying BOOL entries multiple times.
