Other things to check:
1) Could there perhaps be a wrapper script used to start it which is
invoking amavisd in debug mode?
2) Alternatively, check whether the syslog facility you're sending to
got set to something other than "mail", and check the /etc/syslog.conf
file and see if the log facility which amavisd is sending to gets
automatically mirrored to the console. (In that case amavisd would be
correctly logging via syslog but it would still go on the console.)

"My own personal theory is that this is the very dawn of the world.
We're hardly more than an eyeblink away from the fall of Troy, and
scarcely an interglaciation removed from the Altamira cave painters. We
live in extremely interesting ancient times.
I like this idea. It encourages us to be earnest and ingenious and
brave, as befits ancestral peoples; but keeps us from deciding that
because we don't know all the answers, they must be unknowable and thus
unprofitable to pursue." -- Teresa Nielsen Hayden, 1995
