Hi all,
I'm testing Qpsmtpd as a front-end mx for my mail hosting system and

i'ts great.
I've a question for you.. I'd to know if this is possibile without
coding my
own plugin.
If one of my user receive a virus, is it possibile to send an alert
to his
recipient and save the email in a quarantine directory insted of
blocking
the message?
Yes it's possible, but it requires you write your own plugin (as
nobody has done that yet, or they may have but haven't open sourced it).
Basically the way I'd do it is via a "deny" hook which looks at why it
was denied and creates a mail to the recipient if it was a virus deny.
I'd create the mail using something simple like Email::Send rather
than trying to use the qpsmtpd API.

I would implement the quarantine aspect by telling dspam in
the dlmtp conversation that the message was spam and to
deliver it to dspam's quarantine. Then a user could go to the
dspam web interface, examine the message, do various things
with it.
If a windows user has a virus that infects outgoing mail, the
content could be worth quarantining.
