Right, and do you want the filename changing all the time? Instead of
a simple "open()", you have to do a "opendir(), readdir(), string match,
closedir()" set of syscalls. I suppose that you could attempt a
simple open() first, and then only if that fails do you go searching.

So? When you send the mail, the first header you write out is
X-Draft:. That lets you remove the headers which were added in the
delivery process.
