[MAILSCANNER] Mails are not saving in quaratine folder

    [ 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. ]

Check the letter case of the directory entries, as Var is not the same
as var and Spool is not the same as spool in any form or variation of
unix/linux.
I would suspect the case variations and the missing directory
definitions should be fixed.

should probably be /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine
note the letter case-   -                 -
But check your filesystem to make sure, because I really doubt that var
is initial caps.
