I think it has nothing to do with the Bayesit filter. I've tested it with and without 
this filter active and every time when at least 1 message is received, there will be a 
new .tmp file. It doesn't matter if emails are flagged as SPAM and moved into my unk 
folder.
When there many emails in my pop3 accounts, I see many .tmp files being created and 
almost immediately being deleted but there is always 1 that is not deleted. It looks 
like that TB! doesn't do its housekeeping very well and forgets the last .tmp file 
when there are no more message to be downloaded. So, over time the number of .tmp 
files may grow substantially and you have to perform a regular cleanup of the temp 
directories (which BTW, should be done anyway).
