weird problem



I have weird problem....

somehow something creates 4 files per minute in /var/spool/mqueue
this is really annoying as this takes all Inodes and after few days i cant
even run vi.....

what can write in this directory and how do i kill it?

this is what ls gives after cleaning the directory :
total 795
drwxrwx---   2 root     system    404992 Jan 18 16:02 ./
drwxrwxr-x  13 bin      bin          512 Oct 15 10:54 ../
-rw-------   1 root     system       228 Jan 18 16:02 dfQAA45568
-rw-------   1 root     system       420 Jan 18 16:02 qfQAA45568

other info
OSlevel : AIX 4.3.1
machine : RS/6000 G40
daemons running : normal (crond,atd,telnetd etc....) + apache 1.3.3 +
database (Sybase 11.0.3.3)

any ideas?
