A File connector is configured to read files from a /mule/input directory. All other File connector settings are the default settings. What happens to a file after it is processed by the File connector?

Explanation:
When the File connector processes a file and no archive or move destination is configured, it deletes the file from the input directory after successful processing. So with default settings, the file disappears from /mule/input instead of being moved or renamed. If you want to keep a copy for auditing, configure a moveToDirectory (archive) so the file is relocated after processing.
