I do not think that is necessary.

If the score was between tag2 and kill levels, I feel the content type
should be 'S'. You do not lose any information from this, because if
it was quarantined, the quar_type field would not be NULL. Actually
with this setup you could never tell if the score passed the kill
level if there was no quarantining in place at all, but I think that
this is a better tradeoff.

>=20

But this can be misleading when recipients have different SA levels.
Depending on what kind of statistical information you needed.
