I don't see any SPF or DMARC checking in the headers on inbound email and I am currently researching it.

Amavis does not check SPF or DMARC itself, but SpamAssassin will do it, if configured.

Odd one this. It may be doing the checks as I see the X-Virus-Scanned header "Debian amavis at mail-www.howitts.co.uk".

Previously in ClearOS (based on Centos7), I would see in the mail log something like:

So spamassassin must be communicating with amavis somehow. I'll keep digging.

amavis uses SpamAssassin routines internally.

It also contacts clamd directly via clamav socket, or can run clamscan if clamd does not run.

Note that it must be configured to do so, on Debian this is in /etc/amavis/conf.d/15-av_scanners

you can check clamd logs.

I have turned clamscan off, because it overloads system if multiple mails are being received:

@av_scanners_backup = ();

I just got lost in thought. It was unfamiliar territory.
