I see them as well in RTM x86. Is it OK/desirable to delete these on a

Re: Zero byte files are alive and well
I tested it by deleting all the files in the outbox directory and so far
there have been no problems. You should probably not delete the foi file,
but that didn't seem to matter, when I did.
