Does anyone have any idea how to test that Scan Engine can forward to a Central Quarantine server? Scan Engine 5.2.5 will just delete EICAR and will not forward it. The only other way i can see to test it is using a live virus which is of course not something I can do.

Try to  change the "First

Try to  change the "First action" for Non-macro virus to "Quarantine risk" for EICAR to be Quarantined locally and forwarded to the Central Quarantine Server.

Just go with a live virus

Grab some out of the quarantined executables on your incoming mail server.
Obviously be very careful about how you handle them but it really isn't that hard.
