If one of my buffers has the mailarchive file in it and I send a msg that
as a side effect adds to that file, two interesting things happen:

	the added msg immediately shows up in the buffer (nice)

	if I kill the buffer without saving it, the file on disk will NOT
	have the new msg in it (not so nice)

Same thing seems to happen if I output msgs from an RMAIL file (``o'' command)
to a file that emacs happens to be looking at in another buffer.

Sounds like a systematic bug.
