The -D files without corresponding -H files thing came up recently.
Philip explained that Exim writes the data files before the envelope
files. A system or Exim crash between the two writes will cause this.
What's odd is that they're "junk files". I'd say you either have a
wobbly installation or someone's trying to crash Exim on your box.
