Twice now I've had my inbox truncated by ELM.  From what I can tell, it seems
to happen when I've asked ELM to Quit and then exited SunView.  My guess is
that SunView sends a kill signal to ELM during its Quit processing and the
folder update is aborted, causing the trancation error I've seen.

Assuming my theory is correct, shouldn't ELM trap signals while Quitting?
