Jared,
The Q*.* files are controlfiles for IMails Queue processing. To see the
message, find the D*.* file that has the same name/ext as the Q file, I.E,
if Q is Q1234567.GSE, the D1234567.GSE is the message. That will have the
other data about the delivery trouble. These should be directed to the email
address of the sender, if they are 'bounces' from your delivery attempt. If
you do not have a user accounts setup with this address, it would be a good
idea to do that, and check the account for new mail, regularly.
If you do not put the .GSE files back, too, then they won't be delivered and
you will not know why IMail could not send that particular message. Maybe
some of your addresses are bad and eliminating them, will reduce the load
(and the possibilities of the Queue backing up) on your server.
