First of all, you're correct in saying that the creation of the files
MAIL.TXT and $HDRS$MAIL.TXT were responsible for PMDF starting to use Multinet
MM to deliver to your account. Someone or something must have created these
files; PMDF never creates Multinet MM files of this sort for you.

I have no idea who or what created the files. All it takes is someone
accidentally running Multinet MM and saying YES to the first question it
asks. It is very unfortunate that this is all it takes to switch to Multinet
MM but that's the way TGV chose to do it. There's nothing we can do about it.
