Files building up in the WPGATE\GWIA\DEFER directory

fix

The WPGATE\GWIA\DEFER directory is used to store message files that the GWIA cannot immediately deliver.  

Note: The DEFER directory is a holding queue for message files that the GWIA cannot deliver at the moment.  These messages are re-queued every 20 minutes for 4 hours and then every 4 hours for 4 days if still not deliverable, files are deleted, and an undeliverable message is returned to the sender.
