are you using IMAP by any chance?  if so, i experience the same 
problem.  once the email is read, you will notice that the email info is
cached and the line numbers are reported.  perhaps the imap caching
patch would help (and perhaps this is changed/fixed in 1.5).  dunno,
myself, as i'm too lazy to care. ;)
