These files appear to contain infomation about the user's mail folder. This seems to affect mostly laptop users. Users have the option "Make the messages in my Inbox available when I am working offline" checked. This appears to happen because the user shuts down there machine and when Mozilla is closing, during the shutdown process, it is unable to compress the files in time. We use roaming profiles on the network. Client Machine: Windows 2000 SP4 File server: SuSE 7.3 (Samba 2.2.8a) Mail server: SuSE 7.3 (Cyrus 2.0.16) Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Mozilla Mail 2. Let any new mail come down 3. Shutdown machine - Start - Shut Down - Shut Down Actual Results: Temporary files in ImapMail: prf138.tmp (313M) prf13A.tmp (296M) prfA9.tmp (177M) Expected Results: Removed large temporary files.

yes, we need to prevent/warn the user about shutting down while a compaction is going on.

see also bug 190285 David, leaving this assigned to you, which you can void if you wish.

(In reply to David :Bienvenu from comment #1) > yes, we need to prevent/warn the user about shutting down while a compaction > is going on. Compact has been reworked since then, so I don't think a shutdown interruption is necessary. As to the point of this report, I could not reproduce by forcing a shutdown. But I think there should be a leftover .tmp, so perhaps I missed something
