i am sorry to bug you :(

The Quarantine Script only checks for whole msgs (at least, if i do switch
to queue-files, nothing seems to work..could test it again..) but i would
like to have queue-files, so that it would be easy to put shose two files
for each mail into the ordinary sendmail-queue..

so that MS would not check those mails again, and mark them as virus or
spam..

So i think yes..

would be great, if i (or we) could setup the script to create queue-files
for virus-mails and for spam-mails seperatly..

But..only if it would not make your life to hard..

Because your script works fine..

but maybe you understand my point of view..
some users (my non-ml-account for example) receives about 100 spam-mails a
day..
and to create one mail for every spam-mail would fill my mailbox with over
100 mails..if MS would do the job to check those quarantines once a day
and create once a day a mail with all stored mails and those Message-Ids,
i would not need the Quarantine-Script ;)

Because then the users would just send me the id as stated in the long
list, and i could put these mails into the sendmail-mail-queue..

Thanks for listing (or reading) my idea..

have a great holiday season though..

Marcel
