I've had this happen twice and both times it was a user mbx file containing
client data. No Junk Email involved.

The first time it consumed all of the available disk space and bad things
happened. The second time, I caught it before all the space was gone and
the user just lost a day's worth of client correspondence because I
restored the folder to its previous day's state. The bad file is 11GB in
size
and defies my efforts to look at it. I don't know if it will compress.
