What's wrong:
whatnow: problems with edit--draft left in
/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/b/e/beland/Mail/drafts/#1
error appears after typing "s" at Whatnow? prompt. This happens
intermittently on Athena workstations, but never on Linux boxes. It
does not seem to make a difference whether I log in on Suns or SGIs,
and sometimes on the same machine in the same window, with effectively
the same input as what caused the error previously, the error will not
appear. Freaky.
What should have happened:
It usually just sends without complaining. I do have some
customizations, but last time I reported this bug, they suggested I
try turning them off, and it didn't help.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
