2. Temporary Files

Mutt uses many temporary files for viewing messages, verifying digital
signatures, etc. As long as being used, these files are visible by other users
and maybe even readable in case of misconfiguration. Also, a different location
for these files may be desired which can be changed via the $tmpdir variable.

->

set tmpdir=/some/safe/dir
(e.g., $HOME/mutt/)
