The 'required_hits' in local.cf is not essential, as it does not influence
any decisions made by amavisd, which uses tag/tag2/kill levels for
such a purpose.

I suggest you still provide the 'required_hits' in local.cf and make
it as your tag2_level or kill_level. Its value might show up in some
log entries (e.g. when $sa_spam_report_header is turned on (it is
usually off, not being particularly useful)) and in off-line spamassassin
(manual) runs. Using the same setting would make command-line
spamassassin test produce the same report as amavisd-new.
But this is purely cosmetic/informational.

In local.cf. Amavisd-new does not check for such things by itself.
