This sounds like a common MTA configuration issue. The mail comes in
with just "From: missy" in the visible From: header, and your MTA
(Postfix in this case) completes it to a valid address using its own
host/domain name. This is legacy behavior in many MTAs; note that
this would be the right thing to do if for example your own user "jack"
sent email to user "jill" on the same system. However, it's annoying
and arguably wrong when applied to incoming spam.
If this is what you're seeing, it's nothing to do with amavisd.
