So, yeah, that was happening at that time.  I still think that 'found
an error trying to send something --> SAVE THAT DRAFT!!' would be a good
thing to have.

Perhaps we didn't explain it very well, but nmh _does_ that.  But if one of
the nmh programs crash (which maybe happened because something messed up the
draft file?) then we don't really have the opportunity to do anything at
that point.

But I am correct that nmh saved the file as something that I could have
overwritten later using a comp, reply or something like that?  What I was
suggesting was that, at the point where send (I think) failed, it would
be good if nmh made a super-special copy of the draft which, due to its
naming wasn't going to be overwritten.  Am I asking for the impossible?
