Maybe one should recompile elm to put it's temp mbox file into the users'
home directory. This disables multiple elm invocations on different
hosts with common home dir, but inthis case the mail spool is probably
shared, too, and multiple elms aren't good anyway. Comments?
Does anyone know if the new MIME extensions (elm-2.4pl24me?) changed
anything in this respect?
