my home directory file system is full.  i got into vm, and it showed
me my old vminbox after saying that it was getting new mail.  i looked
at the last message and it was the same as before.  i looked for
vminbox.crash and it was not in my mail directory.  i looked in my
safe-place directory (i have overloaded delete-file so that it moves
files into safe-place instead of deleting them, partly in the hopes of
recovering from bugs like this) ... as i said, i looked in my
safe-place directory, and vminbox.crash was there.  but it was of size
0!  the result is that i lost mail, possibly important mail, and i
don't know who it was from.

any idea how to get vm not to lose mail?

i have a suggestion for this.  always, before getting mail, do a from
in some low-priority buffer.  that way if you lose mail, you will know
who to ask for a resend from.  what do you all think of that idea?
