It may or may not be normal.
If there are lots of Q*.SMD files as well, then it is E-mail that is
waiting to be delivered. If the dates/times are all recent, then it could
be a spammer or someone sending out bulk E-mail. If the dates/times are
old, it could just be a lot of mail waiting to be delivered that can't be
delivered (because a server is down, for example).
If there aren't nearly as many Q*.SMD files as there are D*.SMD files, then
you're dealing with "double bounces" -- these are E-mails that IMail
couldn't deliver, but it couldn't send a bounce message either. It keeps
the D*.SMD files, to make sure that the E-mail doesn't just "disappear".
