Using 2000-07-10-08 commercial build on NT

I looked in my c:\temp directory, and there are ~100 files hanging around
labeled nsmail-NN.eml and nscopy-NN.tmp. They appear to be outgoing mail
messages. Of course, those should get cleaned up when the message is sent :-)
Hmm...I have a feeling that we are leaking these in failure situations (i.e. 
app crash, send failure, etc...) I know that if things get sent correctly, 
these are all cleaned up.

I'll throw it on the heap.

Based on the files I see in the temp directory, we're leaking even when we don't
fail.
Grrrr...then something has possibly gone awry with RefCounting and the cleanup 
routine for the back end may not be getting called. I'll try to look into it.

Ok, I see what is going on here. I think I have a fix to make sure we clean 
these up.
