Bad header quarantine question

[Stephen Davies via amavis-users]

I thought that I had configured amavis to quarantine bad header mails but the 
quarantine is not happening.

The following mail log entries show that the bad header is detected and 
apparently quarantined but there are no badh??? files in /var/virusmails.

What configuration glich could lead to this behaviour?

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen

PS. Comparable banned quarantine is working as expected.
