Not to worry, they were retained in a MTA queue and resent on a next MTA retry. > I would have thought there would be some type of cleanup agent that checks > for these type of issues?

Check the logs. Otherwise, just do what Jernej suggested: | the right procedure would be to identify the reason for preserving | tempdir. Otherwise I believe stopping amavisd-new, cleaning tempdir | and starting amavisd-new would be just fine... Keep in mind that one set of these directories with temporary files is always present when amavisd is running - each process dwells in one of these directories. Shutdown sometimes does not remove these directories. As long as they are not too numerous, just delete them every once in a while. With amavisd stopped all of them may be deleted. With amavisd running, make sure not to delete directories which are curently in use. There is no automatic procedure to delete leftover directories. They may be useful as evidence of past problems.
