I just noticed my home directory filling up for no apparent reason.  I
started poking around and found a bunch of files in ~/Mail with names like
this:

-rw-------   1 budr     root         8380 Feb  7 16:24 Incominga16029
-rw-------   1 budr     root         6501 Feb  7 16:31 Incomingb16029
-rw-------   1 budr     root        48540 Feb  7 18:42 Incominga17114
-rw-------   1 budr     root        35407 Feb  7 21:12 Incomingb17114

These are recent mail files and:

UUbudr ~ $ ps ax | grep 17114
17114   2 S     1:45 xemacs -display localhost:0 

I've never noticed this before.  Is this normal behaviour for gnus?  Should
gnus be cleaning these up?  I started using Quassia v0.22 recently, and
that may be about when this started, I'm not sure.

For alpha releases of Gnus, yes.

No.  Just delete them.
