I got this error in a mail bounce:

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
<<< RCPT To:<bug-sipb-mtg@bloom-picayune.mit.edu>
<<< DATA
/tmp/DSa16391: No such file or directory
sh: 16391 Memory fault - core dumped554 "|/usr/athena/bin/dsmail -d /usr/spool/discuss/bug-sipb"@bloom-picayune.LOCAL... unknown mailer error 139

   ----- Unsent message follows -----

I suspect that something (reactivate?) ran "rm -r /tmp" while dsmail was
running, and dsmail couldn't cope.  Someone should check the source to see
if there are fopen calls which "can't fail" and so aren't checked.
