Hi Paolo,

IMO your conclusions are correct. In fact, I'm using a self-written
web application for our support team and our customers, backend is a
shared MySQL database - and normally all frontends connect to the very
same amavisd-new server. Even if in my setup they "know" who the server
putting mail in quarantine has been they don't care as it is not
relevant.

With file-based quarantine this would not work unless you are using
a shared filesystem.

Cari saluti,
Thomas Gelf
