Many df* & qf* Files in the quarantine directory

[Dale Lovelace]

  Hello,

  I just today implemented the mailscanner-3.24-1 rpm on a fresh Red Hat 8.0 box. I have chosen to "store" all spam for now until we are comfortable it is doing what we want. I am looking in the /var/spool/MailScanner/<Today'sDate>/ directory and am finding a great deal of df* & qf* files along with the directories I was expecting. Is this normal? I notice the script from the MailScanner web site will scan the directories there to allow you to read the mail that was caught with Pine, but bombs out because of all of the files in there rather than only directories.

  Thanks!
  Dale
