Type and version: CVAXSTAR 7.2P
Display type: SM
What were you trying to do?
respond to a message using xmh
What's wrong:
several times now since my workstation went to 7.2, shortly after
clicking the "reply" button and before an editing window appears, this
appears in the console
08:45 xmh: No such file or directory
08:45 xmh: RenameAndCheck(/mit/gjackson/Mail/draft->/mit/gjackson/Mail/drafts/8) failed!
08:45 errno = 2; No such file or directory
08:45 exiting.
and then the xmh window disappears leaving behind an "xmh exited with
error code [something]. Usually if I start a new xmh (from the dash
menu, as the original one was) I have no further trouble -- as I recall.
What should have happened:
I should have gotten an editing window for my reply, and xmh shouldn't
have abended.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:

BTW, how come sendbug always uses emacs, rather than follow the EDITOR
envariable as, say, xrn or olc do? Some of us HATE emacs....
