Banned files are being quarantined, spam isn't

grep quarantine /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf returns: 

$sa_quarantine_cutoff_level = undef; # spam level beyond which quarantine is off
$mailfrom_to_quarantine = ''; # null return path; uses original sender if undef
$virus_quarantine_method        = 'sql:';
$spam_quarantine_method         = 'sql:';
$banned_files_quarantine_method = 'sql:'; #Changed to non SQL for testing:
$bad_header_quarantine_method   = 'sql:';

(Lines beginning with # have been removed)

Banned files get blocked and end up in quarantine, spams still get through although they do get marked
With the relevant spam headers and the subject line is chaned.
