Dear list
I would like to move the whole quarantine directory to another
partition to make better use of disk space and reduce the chance of
running out of disk space on the /var partition which is getting fairly
full.

Am I right in adopting the following? Is it that simple?
1) stop mailscanner
2) copy quarantine to it's new location.
3) alter MailScanner.conf so it points to the new location.
4) restart MailScanner.

Assuming this is correct does anything need changing in mailwatch or
will it pick up the details from MailScanner.conf - it looks like it
will?

Thanks
