The message you downloaded has an attachment in it.  Indy has to put
that data somewhere, so it stores it in a temp file.

The TIdAttachment class (which TIdMessage uses) has a DeleteTempFile
property for that purpose.  TIdMessage has a DeleteTempFiles property
that is used to initialize the TIdAttachment.DeleteTempFile property
when attachment data is parsed.
