Leaving %final_destiny_by_ccat to its default (not having a new
value assigned to it in amavisd.conf, e.g. having it commented out), 
everything behaves as before, the $final_spam_destiny will be taken
into effect if mail is spam.

The same applies to all *_by_ccat associative arrays: leave them
at their defaults (don't mention them in amavisd.conf), and all old
config variables will behave as before.

If a *_by_ccat is assigned to explicitly, then whatever is assigned to
it controls which settings or config variables will be consulted.

From RELEASE_NOTES:

  The chain of lookups adhere to the following evaluation sequence
  for settings with an associated *_by_ccat mechanism:
    * policy bank chooses a *_by_ccat associative array (by TCP port or
      by client's IP address (MYNETS));
    * the most relevant contents type of the message chooses an entry in
      a _by_ccat associative array; the entry can be a final settings value,
      or a ref to an array of by-recipient lookup tables (*_maps);
      mostly for compatibility reasons an entry can also be a ref to CODE,
      which allows for delayed evaluation through legacy *_maps settings
      (which may again be members of policy banks);
    * the chosen list of lookup tables is queried based on recipient address,
      producing a final setting;

  Note that currently only settings which are applicable _after_ the mail
  contents type has already been determined, have their associated _by_ccat
  associative array. Settings like @bypass_spam_checks_maps which need to be
  evaluated _before_ mail contents is assessed, do not have their associated
  _by_ccat array;
