It has been my experience that it is insufficient to check
the return value of fputs() when writing to NFS file systems.
We've lost several folders here because that's all mush does
and because our NFS file servers are chronically full.

One really needs to check the return value of fclose()
(I haven't seen it fail yet) before telling the user
his mail is safely written to disk.  I've added code
to do that in copyback().
