^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
mmmm... that's funny. I'd have expected a message:
fopen: /tmp is a directory
:-)
By the way, does your /tmp have proper permissions ? (rwx for all). I used
to have strange errors emitted by a lot of programs & finally I found that
some1 had changed the /tmp permissions.
Well, do u have any directory named 'fopen' in /tmp ? Still I don't see
any reason why the mail program should try to read/write such a file.
