It probably isn't filling things up if they are 0 bytes, but some OSs
have a file limit, you're probably nowhere near that yet ;) As for the
files, it isn't squirrelmail making them, it's PHP. They are session
information files and store the information about the persons session.
You might want to run a bash script or something like that to clear
the files out every now and again, both for sanity and security
reasons. Either that, or make sure that everybody hits the logout
button each time the go to leave instead of just closing the browser
;)
