Margin Settings reduced at conversion

I usually set all margins in the @page-css to 5pt. But when I add a book to Calibre and convert it from epub to epub, the program always reduces the @page-style to
Code:
{
margin-bottom: 5pt;
margin-top: 5pt
}
,

margin-left and margin-right beeing ignored. Thus, the text appears too close to the edges of the screen, and I have to manually correct those settings.

What I do not understand is, that in the conversion section of the program ("page settings" - or "preferences" in English, I don't know), all margins are set to 5pt.

The described effect appears whether in the "Modify epub Options" the "modify @page and body margin styles" option is checked or not.
