Hi all,
first of all, thanks for all the reactions. I do not have the problem anymore now, but I am still interested in finding the cause.

However, TheBat! never takes care of a clean-up of these temp-files as it seems. This could be a bug, or uncareful programming. Either way, I think it should be repaired. (I will send a bug report on it). I think this is what caused the problem in my case, as importing my old email archives was one of the first things I did with TheBat!
