I'm a little more paranoid; I quarantine unless it's a virus I've
checked up on. Once I've had a chance to look at an example one of
these, I will usually add it to the filter as something to be discarded
silently.
I do this because I came across a Javascript/Windows-scripting virus
that actually attached itself to legitimate email, and a customer called
to find out why they weren't getting mail from someone. I don't recall
whether I released those messages from quarantine or not, but I *could*
tell them "<friend> is sending you virus-infected mail".
