I did have to kill amavis 'unleanly' the other day which could explain it.
Does this mean that these emails did not get sent?
I would have thought there would be some type of cleanup agent that checks
for these type of issues? Is there anything I can turn on or use to stop
this from happening(Whils I don't expect it to be a regular thing it would
be nice to know it cant happen)

Cheers

Perhaps because amavisd exited 'un-cleanly'.

This is not a quarantine.

destroying the temporary files, but I suspect your folders are quite old and
remnant from amavisd "crashes" in the past.  We probably need more
information to debug.
