About Suspect Virus Quarantine

The Suspect Virus Quarantine provides short-term storage of messages that are
suspected to contain viruses. Messages can be held for examination in the
Suspect Virus Quarantine for up to 24 hours.
Suspect Virus Quarantine functions are governed in part by specific settings,
and in part by defined virus filter policies associated with one or more groups.
Quarantined messages and associated databases are stored on the Control
Center.
To use Suspect Virus Quarantine, configure your system such that one or more
groups has an associated filter policy that both enables virus scanning for
messages and that delays, or strips and delays messages containing suspicious
attachments. For example, you can create a policy called potential_virus that
delays messages containing suspicious attachments and set it as the inbound
and outbound suspicious attachment message policy for the Default group.
