Hello Thomas Fernandez,

On or about Tuesday, January 14, 2003 at 00:03:18GMT +0700 (which
was 12:03 PM in the tropics where I live) Thomas Fernandez
responded:

TF> The ones named bat*.tmp are related to TB.

Good to know!

TF> There can be two reasons why the files stay there regularly:

TF> 1.) Your connection is unstable. This was the case over here; at my
TF> old appartment, the telephone conection was vut after 20 minutes, and
TF> if that was during a mail check, such .tmp files stayed in the tmp
TF> directory.

Not an issue here with ADSL :-)

TF> 2.) There is a problem. Now, you mention that all these messages date
TF> until May 2002. I remember there was a version that produced bat
TF> droppings, but the problem has long been fixed (it could have been a
TF> beta, I don't remember). Maybe you were running that version.

I believe this is the case.  They suddenly stop about the time I
did an upgrade to 1.6x.

TF> And yes, you can safely delete them.

I like a good bottom line!  I deleted _everything_ in the TEMP
folder and recovered over 1.2GB of space!!

Thanks to all who responded so quickly.
