I've found that my production server has a lot of files in /var/spool/postfix/maildrop.
I don't use postfix at all, however that folder is full of files.
All the files follow the same name format, like this: 2B8431690D, 5712AE68F, 73CF062660, 73C02183A9,
5706512838, 2B7E413705.
The file content appears to be encoded, but using nano I can see they all have something very similar, like this:

Notice this line:
python /var/www/medios/web2py.py -K webmedios
I'm using the system's cron (with the "nginx" user) to run the scheduler, so I guess these files are being created each time the scheduler is run.
Is there a way to avoid those files being created? Or is it something I would have to solve at OS level?
Thanks in advance!
