Scott,

They are nearly always is pairs:

D48b89c5e1280b6c3
T48b89c5e1280b6c3

Is there an Imail setting I should check, that controls T files being deleted.  I went 
in today and found file pairs as old as two days.  Double bounces show up as file 
pairs with shorter names ending in .GSE.  These are always spam and, and while also 
not self deleting, don't bother me.

Thanks
Dan
