It  is not normal to have orphaned D files without Q files, but it can
happen  if  there  are disk access problems or otherwise unclosed SMTP
transactions.  Q  and D pairs together signify a job queued for retry,
but D files alone will never get sent.

Do  a  search in your logs for the filenames and see what Imail thinks
it  did  with the jobs. If they look complete, move the D files out of
the  path  for  the time being and wait a bit before deleting them. If
Imail  doesn't  think  it  sent  the mail (which you can also manually
verify  by  looking  at  the  file  contents and checking with users),
you're  gonna  have  a  problem,  since  the  Q files would have to be
painstakingly recreated from the logs.
