[comp.mail.elm] elm 2.2 folder corruption

I ran elm -f on a rather large notebook, and deleted a bunch of large
messages.  I quit, selecting that those messages be deleted.  In the
process of saving, elm ran out of disk space, I think on /tmp.  It
deleted my messages, but also many of the messages at the end of the
notebook.  Generally elm 2.2 seems like really good code, and this is
definitey an improvement over 2.1 PL1, which would have lost the entire
notebook.  I thought I should report this, since I was under the
impression that these problems had been solved in this version.
I am using a Sun 3/260 running SunOS 4.0.1 and elm 2.2.  Thank you,
-David-
