This won't help as your system is currently broken.
Whats helps is if you really want to use a full bloated amavisd.conf (not
supported by us) you can remove anything out from conf.d and move your
amavisd.conf in there after that.

After an "apt-get -f install" the system should work again.
In the latest version on unstable I fixed this behaviour down to a warning so
it shouldn't be that annoying.

P.S. Why don't you ask on the debian amavis list or fill a bug?
