I have just released beta version 4.37.2.

The main new feature is one that some of you have been waiting for a
long time, and I hope I have come up with a resonable solution to the
problem you were hitting, while not solving it the way you suggested
(bit of lateral thinking went on here :-)

If you quarantine spam, you end up with the quarantine containing
virus-infected spam as well.
Bad news if you want to give your users access to be able to retrieve
messages from the quarantine. They can retrieve viruses as well.

There is a new option:
    Keep Spam And MCP Archive Clean
If you set this to yes, then all spam will be virus-scanned, and removed
from the quarantine if it was found to be infected in any way. This way,
your users can't infect themselves.

I hope this is to your liking, it's not the most elegant implementation,
but doing it elegantly was such a big job it was never going to happen.
Please let me know what you think.
