[Mimedefang] Seperate Quarantine Report Address

Hello,

I've been using MIMEDefang for about a month now and was tired of the 
admin email address I specified with "$AdminAddress" getting the 
quarantine reports.  Basically I only wanted to have to look at those 
reports if I needed to rescue a quarantined attachment for a user.  I 
couldn't find a way to seperate who gets the quarantine reports and who 
gets listed as the admin contact for MIMEDefang, so I wrote a patch to 
create 2 new variables: $QuarantineAdminAddress and 
$QuarantineAdminName.  I also changed mimedefang.pl to email the 
quarantine reports to this user by default, but still list $AdminAddress 
and $AdminName as the contacts for help.

If there is a way to do this already without having to patch the code 
please let me know.  Attached is a copy of the patch (or if it gets 
filtered you can view it at

Thanks,
