comes right back up without issue and functions normally afterwards.
Thankfully, it rarely does it while I'm composing a message, that
would REALLY annoy me, and I would likely have already appeared here
seeking a solution to the problem, but since, so far, it hasn't
caused me any real loss, but rather just minor annoyance, I haven't
mentioned it, until now.
If you compose in an editor like emacs, it auto-saves periodically.
With your email tmpdir set to /var/tmp, these will even survive reboots.
But why would I install an entire VM+OS like E.M.A.C.S. when Icedove has
its own message composer/editor ?
if I wanted to use a different editor I'd be using MUTT with VIM. ;-)
