Are you using postfix? Your messages are still in the postfix deferred
queue. Run the postqueue -p (aka mailq) command to see them. For example:
# mailq
-Queue ID- --Size-- ----Arrival Time---- -Sender/Recipient-------

The files you looking at are the unpacked temporary files used by
amavisd-new. They are preserved so that you can determine the failure
cause, but are not used for re-injection.
Files in the deferred queue are re-examined every queue_run_delay seconds
(default 1000s). You can cause an immediate flush of the queue with
postqueue -f
