Re: [Nmh-workers] nmh should be more careful about when it unlinks draft files

Hi Laura,

/usr/bin/mh/repl -group -format
...
I was replying to somebody and got:
*** Error in `/usr/bin/mh/repl': free(): invalid pointer: 0x08080547 ***
/u/lac/bin/ra: line 2:  5931 Aborted    /usr/bin/mh/repl -group -format

I get similar looking malloc corruptions with nmh 1.6-3 on Arch Linux
when mhshow(1)ing the minority of spam emails.  It doesn't happen with
the git version.

But I expected to find my draft of the message still around so that I
could resend it.  Nope.  All gone.  Nothing there.

Did repl start an editor, e.g. vi?  What does `mhparam draft-folder'
give?  Did repl die after you quit the editor and before the whatnow(1)
prompt?
