Have you opened it? If it is just a log of when you checked your mail then you should be able to delete it with no problems.

If you see your mail in it then that is your mailbox, get rid of the useless items and compress your mailboxes.

You may want ot turn off the POP3 Logging option in Outlook Express.

It appears to be a log file your ISP specifically has for you. If it is of no consequence as peers have suggested getting rid of it should be no problem.
