Hey Malik,

Are these emails from a specific user only that are getting quarantined? If so, then it's kind of unusual, and checking /log/smtpd_main.log can shed more light on this.

To bypass this user, You can add an exception (Email > Policies & Exception > Add Exception) with the username as sender address and bypass it from the Anti-spam check.
