The safest place to save your files is somewhere nobody will ever look

Re: Editing Docs from Email

That's dangerous. The user could edit the document, click the normal save button rather than save as, and have the file saved in the temp directory. And then you have to answer the question "Why didn't it tell me it wasn't saving in my folder?" If you make sure they know to save immediately, thus changing what document is being edited, there's less of a chance they will totally mess up what you said once you've left. Still a chance, but a smaller one.
