Ok... That was one problem, but there was one more. I added the
protocol line and tried again with this result:

-------------------------------------------

Once again, I attempted removing the policy bank entries and that
solved the problem. It now passes normal email and rejects eicar.

The amavisd.conf supplied with the 2.4.0 distribution has default
values for $interface_policy and $policy_bank that appear to be
incompatible with Courier. The README.courier does not mention these
settings. Should this be added to the readme?

The supplied amavisd.conf has these settings:

-------------------------------------------
$interface_policy{'SOCK'}='AM.PDP-SOCK';
$policy_bank{'AM.PDP-SOCK'} = { protocol=>'AM.PDP' };
