Comment 4 for bug 112684

Reproduced in Gutsy and also in Hardy using Thunderbird as the mail client. (Thunderbird is set as "mail reader" in system > preferences > preferred applications)

F-spot creates an image directory in /tmp and puts image files in there. If I sent the message quickly, the image is still there and the mail goes out. If I take the time to compose a message, the images disappear and I can't send the email. I haven't been switching back to f-spot to manipulate the photos like the original submitter, I've just been typing emails.

Here's an strace of this happening (is this useful at all?)

The temp directory created is /tmp/tmp7af80db9.tmp/ you can see 3 images created in that directory and subsequently they're unlinked... I was still typing the email!
