amavisd-new doesn't substitute Perl variables in results from SQL lookups.

Actually, it doesn't substitute them anywhere, the substitutions in
amavisd.conf file are done by Perl itself while interpreting the config file,
without amavisd even realizing it.

Supply your fully qualified domain name in SQL table explicitly,
if you really want that.

Sending quarantine to a mailbox was devised to make possible remote
site-wide or subdomain-wide quarantine mailboxes. Quarantined mail
is not supposed to be directly viewable by recipients without
removing X-Envelope-To headers first (which compromise sender's privacy).

If your intention is to provide each user with its own quarantine,
the correct approach is to direct spam mail to dedicated user's folder,
either by the use of spam tagging in the header, or by adding
address extensions (see:

)
