Hello everybody,

For I while, I have been using mutt 1.5.18 for sending mails.  I
compiled mutt myself, because I need imap-support, which is not
included in the Cygwin mutt package.

This worked fine for serveral weeks.

Now, since yesterday, when I try to open an imap mailfolder, mutt
tells me the following:

  Could not create temporary file /tmp/mutt-lap-jve-11469-1356-0

I do not know the cause of the problem.  Two possible reasons:
 - I have run the cygwin installer several times; maybe something has
been updatet, which broke something?
 - Yesterday, I removed my local copy of my roaming profile.  Could
this have had an effect?

I have the necessary permissions on c:\cygwin\tmp, and I can create
and remove files over there.

Any ideas about what went wrong?

Thank you,
Johan
