Default Backup confusion

Running 6.0.2 on RHEL5 64-bit

I have the following setup in cron for backups:
0 0 * * * /opt/zimbra/bin/zmbackup -del 7d
30 0 * * 6 /opt/zimbra/bin/zmbackup -f -z -a all
30 0 * * 0-5 /opt/zimbra/bin/zmbackup -i -z -a all


However, it looks like I am getting full backups randomly throughout the week.

/opt/zimbra/backup/sessions
[zimbra@webmail sessions]$ ls -lt

Can someone shed some light on why this is happening?

Thanks,
Shannon

By chance did you add new accounts twice this week? (Check the contents of the fulls that are paired with incrementals, ie: They should be just fulls of those new specific accounts, not fulls in the sense of everyone on the server.)
