Good day! Deployed HA cluster version 8.1.2 of 4 nodes, everything works. But I can’t understand what kind of directories are being accumulated along the path /tmp/.quarantine-XXXXXXXXX and filling up the disk space? Spam seems to be stored at /var/spool/pmg/cluster/id_nodes/spam/. Tell me what kind of directories /tmp/.quarantine-XXXXXXXXX these are and what are they used for?
 
We managed to find out that the /tmp/.quarantine-XXXXXXXXX-username
domainname-YYYYYY directories appear after users retrieve a letter from the spam quarantine. Tell me, is it possible to somehow remove the creation of these directories?

These directories are created in /tmp ... because they are temporary files.
They contain the mail when a user looks at it in their quarantine.

Why do you want to not have them?

These directories appear when you click 'Deliver' on a spam letter; the letter is successfully delivered to the user, but the /tmp... directory remains in place. Because of this, the disk becomes very full. How to fix it?
