Just to be certain (It's not my first day with Linux, but I'm still relatively new to it), you mean NFS as in Network File System, as in mounting a remote file system on the Linux server, correct? If correct, then no, NFS is not involved. Both the directory being scanned and the destination directory for quarantine files on on the root filesystem, local to the machine.

User root is frequently (and correctly) prohibited from deleting files from NFS mounted sources. There are mount options to over-ride this. If the home directory is not NFS mounted then I'm out of ideas as it works fine here.
