Quarantine queue format

[Steen, Glenn]

    [ The following text is in the "iso-8859-1" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]
    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

You likely need chmod 700 /var/spool/postfix/incoming/F/F29183F8 and
chown postfix.postfix /var/spool/postfix/incoming/F/F29183F8
... postfix is picky about this:-). Might also need touch it, but
the copy should take care of that (while destroying ownership and
probably the permissions too).
