Yes, a very unpleasant surprise. Spent several hours carefully drafting
a referee report in a mutt session replying to the letter that contained
the paper to referee. A power failure caused a reboot, and as I find out
the default Ubuntu behavior is to delete all the user's work in /tmp,
even if it is only five minutes old. TMPTIME should have a nonzero
default.
