I didn't investigate in dinky guts, but noticed that when you write a
letter, frequently doing Ctrl+S (a habit under Windows), it seems that
TB's editor does the same as Word: it saves all copies from this
"session" somewhere (probably in OS's temp folder) and used memory
increases. You can check this out by compressing "outbox" during writing
a larger letter. Usually, if I write a longer letter (7-12 KB), doing
lots of modifications, after compressing Outbox, contraption shows few
MB freed. I suppose that if you add an attachment *before* you have
finished the letter, this amount of memory might be even much larger.
I didn't, yet, get any "error" messages, but sometimes, TB starts to act
"strangely" in various ways (loosing focus after Ctrl+S, messing with
GUI elements, some "selecting" functions etc.) so that I have to restart
it.
