Can I run multiple amavisd configurations on the same host? I am running two postfix instance on two different ports. Right now both submit to the same amavisd which means all messages originate from the postfix instance

Can I simply make a copy of my original amavisd config and run a second
amavisd instance with just the ports changed?

While it's certainly possible to run two instances of amavisd-new, if the only purpose is to serve two postfix instances one instance of amavisd-new can handle that already. The settings of $forward_method and $notify_method can be adjusted to tell amavisd-new to keep track of where the mail came from, and send it back to the originating IP, at the [incoming port number plus one]. You may also need to adjust $inet_socket_port and $inet_socket_bind to listen on multiple IPs and/or ports.

When all this is on one server you might use:
$inet_socket_port = [10024, 10026];
$forward_method = 'smtp:*:*';
$notify_method = $forward_method;
Then postfix-1 would send to 10024 and receive on 10025 (the default), postfix-2 would send to 10026 and receive on 10027.

See the comments included in amavisd-conf.sample for details.
