IMail creates a .tmp file when calling a program alias and passes that file to the program as a parameter. I have had luck placing the following line at the end of the update script: del %1 Some have reported that this didn't work and that simply deleting all .tmp files from the spool as in 'del \imail\spool\*.tmp' seems to work. I feel like that's a bit of a sledge hammer and might delete something unintended, but nonetheless folks have reported good results. Another option is to remove all old .tmp files from your spool periodically (nighly) along with orphaned messages etc using a utility like delold. AFAIK, the update scripts presented on our site do not make use of the .tmp file so it's safe to delete it. Hope this helps, Thanks, _M This E-Mail came from the Message Sniffer mailing list.
