I found I had an old installer called pan-0.141-303.msi. The 'about' 
help says it's Pan 0.142 and says:

He slipped to Sam a double gin (15252be bitbucket.org/one47/pan.git; 
x86_64-w64-mingw32)

this one works fine

More digging about on the windows binaries page gives me:

pan-0.144-305.msi - Pan 0.144 - Time is the enemy (5790967 
bitbucket.org/one47/pan.git; x86_64-w64-mingw32)
(unsigned installer)
saving files works fine, but when it starts, and you had an empty 'sent' 
folder selected, it starts up with the list of all groups selected

pan-0.142-304.msi - Pan 0.143 - Quaint little villages here and there 
(3b293ea bitbucket.org/one47/pan.git; x86_64-w64-mingw32)
Saving works fine, doesn't get confused if you have an empty 'sent' 
folder selected.

So presumably it was a change between 0.144 and 0.146 that causes the 
problem
