I made a Sim, moved into her into an apartment, and had her do some writing. I tried to submit a book to the literary digest once she reached level 9 in the writing skill and unlocked the ability. The action queues twice when she clicks on her own mail slot, the one with the commands to Get Mail and Pay Rent. The action only queues once if she clicks on one of the other two mail slots. I don't know if this is limited to apartments. The second action fails, as expected.
There was a similar bug that was fixed in November 2018. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/FIXED-Publish-Liberty-Digest-queues-twice-failing-the-second/m-p/6686808#M59699
