/home/MailScannerLogs/quarantine has reached 125GB. How do I tell Mailscanner to useless space? Fewer Days? etc...
Thanks
Jason

When my MailScanner was reinstalled by WayToTheWeb, the logs were relocated to a larger partition, from /var/logs/Mailscanner to /home/MailScannerLogs
The /etc/cron.daily/clean.quarantine.cron was not changed to point to the new location, so it was not deleting any old quarantine files. I had a year worth of quarantine on the drive.
I edited the cron job, and ran it. It ran for an hour and now my drive went from 90% usage to 22% usage.
