Here's a question which has been bugging me for a while, and several
different times I've trolled through the source but haven't found where
this is happening:

Why is mutt leaving files around in my home dir that look like:

     .saves-1074902-budoe.bu.edu

This isn't the editor temporary file (this current editing session is
mutt-1093277), but rather is a file which contains the names of the
edited mail messages.  The current one looks like

       /home/habig/tmp/mutt-budoe-1093277-4
       /home/habig/tmp/#mutt-budoe-1093277-4#

This happens on all machines I use mutt on (IRIX, Solaris, Linux), and
these files can really build up after a while.

I'm curious as to where these files are coming from, and how I can make
mutt clean up after itself?

     Thanks,
     Alec
