Two problems around /tmp/access-list.debug:

* It is very dangerous to create a file at /tmp naively, especially
with root privilege.

* "\n" is missing.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
