Sorry, my mistake. It was 10 minutes:

Mar 30 15:08:53 mailtwo sm-mta[65928]: k2UD8pM8065928:
  from=<**thisone**>, size=241591, class=0, nrcpts=1, ...

Mar 30 15:18:53 mailtwo sm-mta[65928]: k2UD8pM8065928:
  Milter(milter-amavis): timeout before data read

Mar 30 15:23:12 mailtwo amavis[66548]: (66548)
  AM.CL /var/amavis/amavis-milter-k2UD8pM8065928: ...

but amavisd used a 15 minute timeout. The milter timeout
should be longer than amavisd timeout ($child_timeout).

C and S can be fairly short, defaults are probably just fine.
Indeed it is the E (and R) where delays occur. I'm not sure
which part of the E does the R cover.

It should all be in the logs, either sendmail's or amavisd's.
Try to locate a logged duplicate delivery and see how it relates
to the first-time delivery.

If $forward_method is undef (as in a milter setup),
then a duplicate could not be produced by amavisd sponataneously,
it must have been sendmail's initiative to repeat a delivery.
