    src/sbbs3/readmail.cpp
    Log Message:
    Save/reuse the mail save path/filename as a user property (in data/user/*.ini)

    This is a fix for issue #340

    Another idea would be to store a history of mail save paths and allow the user to scroll through them/choose with the up and down arrow keys, but that goes beyond the original feature request. So this just stores/reuses the last successfully used path/filename.

    Log Message:
    Always free(mail)

    I don't think this was actually a leak (since smb.msgs should be non-zero
    any time mail is non-null), but to make Coverity happy (CID 515659) and just
    be more fault-tolerant, always free(mail).

    Log Message:
    Eliminate the "Start with number [n]:" prompt in initial message listing

    As Deuce pointed out, this prompt can be confusing (no, it's not a menu) and really, it's redundant because you can enter a message number at the
    "Reading E-mail" prompt just as easily.

    Another change is that if the list is aborted (e.g. Ctrl-C hit), leave the current message number as the last message listed.

    Log Message:
    Use get_start_msgnum() when (L)isting msgs from Reading E-mail prompt

    ... for consistency with Reading (sub-board) Msgs prompt behavior

    e.g. the default first message is either the *next* message or (when reading the last message), the first message.

    Log Message:
    Use usernumber from mail message index for reply-to inbox

    If replying to a netmail address that is invalid (e.g. because it's a local address), but the sender was an authenticated user (non-zero 'from' value in the index) - use that as the destination user number (inbox) for the reply
    (via regular email, not netmail).

    Rather than failing with an "Invalid NetMail address: <user@address>" error.

    These types of replies used to work for Internet email, at least, because the mail server would just send to itself (when everything's working). Could be problematic for other network types and really it's just best to avoid the email loop anyway.

    Related to commit 4aa2274c97 "Refuse to send netmail to our own addresses".
