I have checked letter cases it is
/var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine
it was my writing mistake sorry.
but my installation is default installation
I have not changed anything except oraganizational names
settings are default in Mailscanner.conf
which changes are required  to  work ?

Nilesh.

      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.
