I'm not recommending p=quarantine for that exact reason. People will go in
their spam folder and then report back to you phishes as if it was emails
you sent. You are better with p=reject. However it is fine to do
p=quarantine as a transition method to p=reject, especially when not too
many people send forensic reports.
