Justin,
Just so you are aware, you can keep files as you see fit but if you
are passing spam ($final_spam_destiny = D_PASS; or spam_lovers) then
one other option is to not quarantine spam at all. To prevent spam
quarantine, you can raise kill_level to a level higher than any spam
(e.g. $sa_kill_level_deflt = 9999;) which means quarantine will never
trigger, or you can disable quarantine ($spam_quarantine_to = undef;)
or you can set a resonable kill_level and cut quarantine off at a
certain level (e.g. $sa_quarantine_cutoff_level = 20;). Remember that
it's kill_level that triggers spam quarantine.
