Is it possible to change where sup saves the messages under editing? Sup
just crashed and I lost quite a long message editing in /tmp/ ;)
I'd like the edited messages be saved to .sup/editing/*

Just because it's in /tmp doesn't mean it's automatically deleted, does
it? (Except maybe at system startup.)

Yes, it's weird. At what stage does Sup actually delete the edited
messages (after sending I guess)? I was not able to see any edited
messages in /tmp after the crashes. Sup crashed after exiting the emacs
editor. No files in drafts or sent.mbox either...
However I was able to see file 12554-0-sup.compose-mode when I
intentionally killed Sup, trying to simulate the situation...
Here is the exception log after one crash if it helps in any way:

If you're using Tempfile then closing the file, delete it. And closing the
process can force it to close it's files.
I've locally workaround this problem by defining a custom script that keep a
copy in ~/tmp as the sup editor.

I am using Tempfile, which has a non-deterministic behavior (at least, I
can't figure out a pattern) upon crashing: sometimes it deletes the
files, sometimes it leaves them.
I guess the answer is to manage my own temporary files, deleting them
only upon successful shutdown.

Long time ago (when I did more ruby stuffs), I wrote this module (attached)
that makes part of a package called core_ex. I found it far more useful than
the default module. Feel free to import it.
