On special scenarios, such has exchange some user receive emails from "Distribution List", this list are not like alias, so the user does not "own" the address.

This means that if a Distribution List such as "sales@domain.com" exists in Exchange and its its members are: user1@domain.com, user2@domain.com, user3@domain.com, when either of this users access the quarantine they will never see the emails that came to "ales@domain.com".

Possible solutions:

Add a new admin area where admins can manage amavis-quarantine permissions, something simple: "Add new permission set" - "Select mailbox" - "select other mailbox/alias/distribution list"
Create a tool that would query active directory or maybe using Exchange Web Services (EWS) and find and all distribution list and auto assign this permissions.

The second will be more difficult to develop I believe but perhaps the ideal.
