|    but are caught by quarantine-attachments.db?
|

1. Check the --notify option when you are configuring qmail-scanner.
2. I believe this would be a nice feature as well, unless
qmail-scanner already does it, which wouldn't surprise me.  I have
such a narrow use for qmail-scanner, my knowledge is probably quite
limited.
