- My outgoing mail is saved in the ~/outfold file. However, I seemes
- troubles are generated when I try C-c C-s or C-c C-c while this file
- has been previously been visited and the corresponding buffer is open.
- Emacs tells me the buffer is read-only.
-
- I found this in the emacs FAQ:
-
-
- WARNING: If you are visiting the file ~/outgoing at the time you send
- the mail, this can cause a variety of horrible problems. Jamie
- Zawinski has written a solution for this.
-
- I wonder if you have this solution or if you have Jamie's Zawinski
- email address.
-
- Thank you.
