[John Schmerold]

Solved with following script thanks for everyone's input:
#!/bin/sh

for d in 13 14 15
do
cd /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine/20051101/200605$d

for file in q*
do

    for i in `grep -il bti-bri.com $file`
    do
        j=$( echo "$i" |  tr qf df )
        cp -p $j /var/spool/mqueue.in
        cp -p $i /var/spool/mqueue.in
    done

done

done
