That ol' thing still works like a charm, yes. Used it for ages.
Downside is that it doesn't really keep the spam quarantine clean, it
just make sure that that message is detected as a virus carrier (scan
is "forced" since it is delivered). In a MailWatch environment, where
you never (or seldom:) release messages from commandline, this is not
a problem.

But the Keep Clean thing should work too, and this time really keep
the spam quarantine clean.

Ed, might it be as simple as you looking in the wrong place for the
quarantined message? Or were they ... "munged up" in some unfortunate
way?
