Has anyone else had any problems with "whatnow" not running
after you compose an email message?  Occasionally, when I
write an email using comp or repl, and quit emacs in order
to send it (with just C-x C-s, C-x C-c), it doesn't ask me
"What now?" but just returns me to the athena prompt.  The
message is still sitting in my drafts folder, and there's
not a copy in my outbox (which should happen automatically),
so I assume it's not sending the email at all.

This doesn't happen often, but it's happened maybe 5 times
in the past two weeks or so, and I don't remember it ever
happening before that, so I'm guessing it has to do with 8.3.
And yes, I'm sure I'm not just typing C-z or anything, and
I didn't otherwise background it.

(Sorry if this problem has been brought up before.  I didn't
see anyone mention it, but I could have missed it.)

Thanks,

Sara
