Reprocess emails that end up in /var/virusmails

Last email had the wrong subject.

I have a few emails from internal servers that got flagged as SPAM.  I added trusted_networks 10.10.10.0/24 to my local.cf so that emails from those servers aren't checked for SPAM. 
I have the IDs for emails that are in the /var/virusmails directory.  Is there a way I can reprocess those emails so they are delivered?

SpamAssassin V. 3.002005

Thanks,
James

Yes I'm using amavisd-new, this got me on the right track.

Thanks,

Sounds like you are using amavisd-new.
Quarantined mail messages can be either released from a quarantine
and delivered to recipients without re-checking for viruses and spam
by using a command 'amavisd-release', or fed back to mailer's
input side and re-checked for viruses and spam by a 'amavisd-requeue'
command. The only difference between the two commands is a MTA port
number to which a message is delivered: port 10025 ($release_method),
or port 25 ($requeue_method).

Has been rejected and won't show up on the list, FWIW, since you're not
(yet!) subscribed anyway.

That's not what trusted_networks does. Please carefully read the docs
again.

If you want specific mail not being scanned by SA, just don't feed them
to SA in the first place. Not a SA configuration issue, but with the
tool that uses SA as a filter.

Same. SA does not quarantine mail. You want to check with the tool that
did, based on the SA result.

And this one is still incorrect as it is a reply to a thread.
Please use the "new message" button in your client. The "reply" button is 
for, surprise, replies.
