The 'bypass' will translate to 1 (true). I'm not sure where you got
that syntax (but it is not actually broken). read_hash will assume
the RHS is a 1 if it is missing, so it is typical to use either:
domain1.com
or
domain1.com 1
I have to assume you are entering recipient domain, not sender domain
(this is not the mechanism used to whitelist a sender).
Double check the recipient's address - this will match [EMAIL PROTECTED]
but not [EMAIL PROTECTED] In that case you could add a wildcard:
.domain1.com 1
FYI, You could exempt a single user in that domain by using:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 0
example.com 1

Same deal.

No point in that (unless Postfix is using the file too) - amavisd-new
reads the plain text file - not a postmapped database file.
amavisd-new is not Postfix.

Temporarily raise $log_level to 5 and read what transpires in the log.

Neither. It allows spam to pass regardless of score.
When bypassing, if mail is addressed to multiple users, and another
recipient's mail is not bypassed, then spam scanning will still take
place. That is why any user/domain you place in the @bypass_spam map
should also be placed in the @spam_lovers map. If you do not,
depending on other settings, it would be possible for mail to be blocked
by the spam_check.
grep lovers /var/log/maillog
Also remember that amavisd must be reloaded after each change.
