This has nothing to do with whether mail is filtered for example.com
or not. Since you relay mail to example.com, this domain should
already be in your /etc/mail/relay-domains which is the file that your
/var/amavis/local_domains is linked to. If this is accurate, then mail
addressed to example.com should be spam scanned. This setting will
quarantine spam addressed to example.com to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and it
will discard spam for everyone else.

Since you have not configured $QUARANTINEDIR, the default for
$QUARANTINEDIR is undef, which means that amavisd-new will skip local
delivery of quarantined items. So, you do not need to change or
configure $QUARANTINEDIR. Since you do not wish to quarantine items
locally, you also do not need to create /var/virusmails.

Since this is the case, the ONLY change (addition) you need to make to
amavisd.conf is:

@spam_quarantine_to_maps = (
 { '.example.com' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', #spam for this domain goes here
  }
);

You can use this, or the previous example of this:

@spam_quarantine_to_maps = (
 { '.example.com' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', # spam for this domain goes here
   '.' => undef, # everyone else's spam is dumped (discarded)
 }
);

After a spam is sent to someone at example.com, in your log you should
also see mail addressed to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Like I said, make sure there is a mailbox set up for that email
address.
