You're correct about directly editing the amavis.conf file, Server
Admin only reveals a limited set of Amavis variables. The consolation
is that you've inherited a UNIX system.

There's a decent reference of the Amavis settings at this location...

http://www200.pair.com/mecham/spam/a...-settings.html

The key area of the page explains what you want to do...

$final_spam_destiny = D_DISCARD;
$spam_quarantine_to = "spams\@$mydomain";
Once a message reaches the score we set in $sa_kill_level_deflt:
the message will not be delivered to its recipient(s), sender will not
be notified. A copy of the mail will go to the email address we
configured here. This "spams" mailbox is our quarantine area for spam.

$sa_tag_level_deflt = undef; Any message that is addressed to a
recipient that is considered local will have X-Spam-Status, X-Spam-
Score and X-Spam-Level headers added. As I said, for this particular
setting, undef is programmed to mean 'lower than any possible score'.

$sa_tag2_level_deflt = 5.0; Mail that scores at 5.0 or above will
have 'Spam> ' prepended the the Subject line. This will only happen if
the mail is considered local and is passed to a recipient (and
$sa_spam_modifies_subj is true). We set $sa_spam_subject_tag = 'Spam>
'; earlier. The X-Spam-Status extra header will change from "No" to
"Yes" and a new 'X-Spam-Flag: YES' header will be added.

$sa_kill_level_deflt = 8.0; This is the level that triggers the
D_DISCARD action we have assigned to $final_spam_destiny and is also
the level at which quarantining occurs (if a quarantine is configured).
