I'm not an CentOS expert but from what i have seen the virusmails are quarantined in /var/amavis/virusmails/

From there you can use gunzip and then munpack to get the attachments from the email.

Re: download quarantined attachments

no, virusmails are stored in mysql backend

aswell: 0.9.6 (Jan 23, 2017)

That's an super outdated version for a not supported distro (Centos 6.10)

CentOS was dropped completly, only CentOS Stream (8 / 9) is supported.

Warning: CentOS 6 operating system version reached end of support (EOS) on November 30th, 2020. After this EOS date, updates and patches from the CentOS community were notavailable anymore.

Your system is very vulnerable, doesn't support TLS 1.3, uses weak/outdated ciphers, and many other exploits that didn't get any patches anymore.

For example:
https://www.postfix.org/smtp-smuggling.html

Currently, there is no viable way to just download the attachment without releasing it, since the full body gets stored truncated in parts as a BLOB (Binary Large Object)

There is no reliable way to archive what you want
