Nope. Why don't you just script something to clean it out regularly via
cron?

I mean something as simple as

find /var/spool/qmailscan/quarantine/new  -type f -print | xargs rm -f

should do the trick.

There may be the occassion where for some reason you want access to the
original message. If you immediately delete them, you'll never have the
chance.

Although I must admit 8-9G of viruses in 24 hours!!!! I can't imagine
that amount!!! [go on - tell us how much mail you process - you must be
near top of the heap around here... :-)]

Sigh - I've changed my mind - you should look at commenting out the
first chunk of the subroutine "email_quarantine_report" to do what you
want. I've haven't looked into it in detail - but that'd be the starting
point.
