The .MAIL files are deleted roughly 4 minutes later. The reason for this is that we
want to make sure that all of the
control files have been created and read before deleting the mail file. Because of
the speed of the server it's
possible that a control file could be read and processed completely before the server
picks up another control file that
uses the same .MAIL file so we decided to create a deferred deletion system in the
server.

Howie
