[AMaViS-user] Amavisd ignoring AV reports from clamav

I've noticed that amavisd on my MX no longer blocks stuff flagged by clamav.

The only difference in the logs for a message which clamav's log shows as having FOUND something and one which is CLEAN is that in the latter case amavis logs 'Hits: -' and in the FOUND case it logs 'Hits: 0.1'.

The logs show that it is sending everthing to clamav, just PASSing mail which should be DISCARDed and quarantined.

I can't find any reason why.

My /etc/amavis/conf.d/50-user just sets:

@local_domains_acl to a list of my local domains, $forward_method and $notify_method to the delivery smtpd, $myhostname to the correct fqdn, and:

@bypass_virus_checks_maps = (); # to check everthing
$final_virus_destiny      = D_DISCARD;
$final_banned_destiny     = D_DISCARD;

The quarantine had a couple of recent badh- files, but no virusor  banned- files for the last several months.

An example of the logging:

>From mail.log:

Dec 29 18:33:03 mx amavis[8696]: (08696-11) Passed CLEAN, [74.238.54.136]

                         -> ,
    Message-ID: ,
     mail_id: Ainpxge0xIwH, Hits: 0.1, size: 3648, queued_as: 585E494093, 771 ms

and the corresponding entry from clamav.log:
