	This is an anecdotal sort of problem report, but the phenomenon
is so alarming that I thought I'd ask whether anyone else has seen it:

	It's only in the past three or four weeks that elm 2.1 has been
used much here.  Since then I and several other people have reported
receiving messages which contained only headers, no user text.  In at
least one case I know with certainty that the text was edited and saved
to the temp file.  I have tried casually to reproduce it and haven't
been able to.  No one can recall it ever having happened with 1.5b, our
previous version.  Mailx users (of whom there are many) don't report the
problem. 

	Does this sound like anything anyone else has seen?  I will be
delighted if you tell me it's fixed in 2.1.1, which we will install soon.
Thanks.
