I just tested this on RH 6.2 with joe as editor. Mutt uses the given
tmpdir=~/tmp and the mutt-* files are correcly deleted when the mail is
sent. Perhaps you set wrong permission for the tmpdir?

Do you have a sort of auto-save enabled? If you save the file manually
and abort sending in mutt the file won't be deleted.
