zmtrainsa ham learning error

# zmtrainsa <user@domain> ham Inbox
mktemp: cannot make temp dir spam.XXXXX: Invalid argument

To fix this, change line 65 in zmtrainsa
From:
tempdir=`mktemp -d -t ham.XXXXX` || exit 1
To:
tempdir=`mktemp -d -t ham.XXXXXX` || exit 1

PS. Spam training works fine, mktemp seems to require a 6-char tmp extension (at least on my Ububtu)

could it be a permissions problem?

Why would that be? Spam training works fine, and adding the additional "X" in the mktemp template argument made ham training work. The spam line had 6 "X" characters and the ham line only had 5. I just `apt-get upgrade` the day I noticed, but don't think the updrade affected the mktemp operation.
