When your spam filter correctly identifies a malicious message, that message doesn&rsquo;t disappear — it goes into quarantine, where it waits for administrative review. Without a proper quarantine management interface, your users are left wondering where their missing emails went, and administrators must manually sift through raw quarantine databases or log files to release false positives. <strong>MailWatch</strong>, <strong>MailZu</strong>, and <strong>amavisd-new&rsquo;s built-in quarantine release</strong> represent three approaches to solving this problem, from the full-featured MailWatch dashboard to the lightweight MailZu interface to amavisd&rsquo;s native SQL quarantine tools.</p>
