Check your /usr/lib/uucp/uudemon.clean (and maybe other daemons, as
well).  This is what I had to do to fix the same problem with my HDB
uucp:

*** OLDuudemon.clean	Sun Jan  1 22:26:51 1989
--- uudemon.clean	Sun Jan  1 22:27:32 1989
***************
*** 178,182

  #	Dispose of mail to uucp and nuucp
  #
! rm -f $MAILDIR/uucp $MAILDIR/nuucp $TMP
