I've done that. Using 'strace' just give me:

[...]
stat("/tmp/mutt-ganymed-9155-1", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=115, ...}) = 0
open("/tmp/mutt-ganymed-9155-1", O_RDWR) = 4
old_mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 
0x2aad2000
unlink("/tmp/mutt-ganymed-9155-1")      = 0
write(4, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 2047) = 2047

The last line is printed about 50.000 times within a couple of
seconds.  Before this exerpt, to me it seems that  the  editor
command was sucessful (mutt reports that the child has  quit).

Could  someone  explain/interpret  the  last  line?   I   have
absolutely no idea what this could be and  how  to  solve  it.

Cheers, Rocco.
