Prombem with rule actions

[Gareth]

In MailScanner.conf I have :-
Quarantine Dir = /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine
Quarantine User = root
Quarantine Group = apache
Quarantine Permissions = 0660

However all quarantine entries are stored in the format :-
%quarantine-dir%/<<date>>/<<msgid>> and they are viruses and blocked
attachments.
I am assuming this is correct for the virus quaranteen?
If that is the case then MailScanner does not seem to be creating the
additional 'spam' etc... subdirectories for some reason.

Are you sure the format is not %quarantine-dir%/spam/<<date>>/<<msgid>> as
if that was the case it could just be the issue that the spam directory does
not exist.
