I just composed a mail in mutt and 'sent' it.  Mutt then sat trying to
get an fcntl lock, presumably on my sentmail mbox, it failed after
however many tries it does.

My question is - was the mail sent or not?

Strangely enough when I fired up mutt again to look in the sentmail
file (mutt -f +sentmail) it had a few retries at locking it again and
then succeeded, showing me that the mail I had just sent wasn't saved
there.
