Hi there --
As a general rule of thumb, what is the oldest a file should be from any given
day that is in the quarantine directory
before it should be deleted from the system?
That is a policy decision each of us has to make. My policy is to not
quarantine files, for example. If yours is a business environment then
that policy may come from the legal department. HR may chime in on it
too as quarantined messages may contain critical financial information
and so requires special handling/storage. If yours is a personal system
you can do what ever you like. If you choose to quarantine files then
you oblige yourself to check them regularly, though, and history teaches
that if one cannot decide quickly what to do with a file it likely has
no value.
