Hi,

somehow my quarantine mechanism has stopped working. It DID work, and 
stopped some days ago, and I cannot tell you why, I don't even have the 
faintest idea.

Any hints, how to debug it... ?



Config:

Run As User = postfix
Run As Group = postfix

Quarantine Dir = /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine
Quarantine User =
Quarantine Group =
Quarantine Permissions = 0600
Quarantine Infections = yes
Quarantine Silent Viruses = no
Quarantine Modified Body = no
Quarantine Whole Message = no
Quarantine Whole Messages As Queue Files = yes


#> ls -ld /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine/

drwxr-x---  2 postfix postfix 48 Jan  7 18:24
/var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine//


/var/log/maillog:

It used to have something like

Jan  3 14:11:43 filter MailScanner[31198]: Saved entire message to 
/var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine/20080103/69AA31B3.97AD0

in the log.
