This should be $MHTMPDIR, $TMPDIR, "/tmp". (I was wrong earlier about mkstemp() defaulting to /tmp – you have to specify the full path.) I guess $TMP is a Windows thing? It shouldn't be used on UNIX systems. > * If MHTMPDIR is not an absolute path, interpret it as relative to the > MH Path directory. This is a security breach waiting to happen. For tempfiles you should always be specifying an absolute path. This isn't just an MH issue. --lyndon
