*.BAD; *.BDP; *.BDR files

I am running Back Office Business Server. Files with the
above extensions are being written to the BadMail folder
in "Exchsrvr\Mailroot\vsi 1" at a massive rate: about
50mb per day. I had to delete well over 1Gb and it took
several hours. Deleting the files seems to have no
detrimental effect.
Does anyone know why these files are being written?
I have virus/worm/adware/spyware checked and there is
nothing I can trace.
Help!
