Ugh, what?!?
Well, if I say M-x mail I get an error message saying
`Opening output file: no such file or directory,
/home/Gudrian/#*mail*#1660Va0#'
Asterisks are no good in file names that are meant to be stored on file
systems by Microsoft... Which makes me wonder whether that would work
on *nix systems. Anyway I never got an error message like that on
FreeBSD, and given the fact that CVS Emacs doesn't compile on Cygwin at
the moment it might just be the combination of Cygwin and Emacs which
causes this behaviour. Never bothered me though, since I do not use
Emacs for mailing.
You should report that, whatever it is, as a bug.
Let me guess:
M-x report-emacs-bug
which in turn will try to open a mail buffer, right? :)
If you have a gnus session active and mail-user-agent set to
gnus-user-agent, then the buffer file name might be different when
calling mail.
No, I'm sorry. Don't bother. I might dive into that some time later.
But it's not worth it at the moment. After all it's just a minor
font-locking problem I was originally dealing with.
Is there a function which formats the mail buffer name? Perhaps I can
alter it in a way that will make reporting bugs work.
