Due date for To Do in Mail does not work

When I open a new To Do from Mail, the Due Date pulldown gives several options like Today, Tomorrow, Next Week and Other. Whenever I select Tomorrow or Next Week, the To Do always appear as Today. Has anyone else encountered this? Seems like a bug in Mail. The only options that work are Today and Other.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.2)

Me too - annoying,. Also the date due box refuses to take European date formats such as 20/04/08...

Yes, I've seen this, too. I agree it seems to be a bug.

A workaround that I use is to type "today" or "tomorrow" in that field, which does what you'd expect instead of the glitch you and I are seeing when choosing those from the menu.
