Well, yes and no. Quarantining has its own settings, which is independent from decision whether to deliver mail or not. E.g. spam gets quarantined even for spam lovers, even though they do receive their mail. For spam all it matters is that spam level is at or above kill level, and that spam quarantine is enabled. But in your case (judging from 'Passed CLEAN') it seems you have quarantining also enabled for clean messages - which may be perfectly valid and desired (e.g. archiving), but is not a default setting. Check your settings %quarantine_method_by_ccat, %quarantine_to_maps_by_ccat, $clean_quarantine_method, @clean_quarantine_to_maps, $clean_quarantine_to.
