[plug] tmpwatch question

Since tmpwatch is supposed to delete all files in a directory every 4 hours
tmpwatch --atime 4 /var/spool/mmsmtp/quarantine/
Is there a reason why certain files does not delete?  These are files that have not been accessed or modified since they were created.  Also, is there a way to either 1) stop tmpwatch or/and 2) change it's parameters (e.g does issuing another command take precedence over the existing command)?

Thanks
