I'm using amavisd-new on Ubuntu Gutsy gibbon. I would use the
documentation on the amavisd-new website but it doesn't match what I see
in /etc/amaivs.

    * I don't have an amavisd.conf file
    * I have a directory with lots of config files in it
          o /etc/amaivs/conf.d

I don't know why Ubuntu Gutsy has a different setup.
