Where does the file utility reside? Is it in one of directories listed in your $path variable in amavisd.conf? A usual setting is: $path = '/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin'; Is the file(1) program executable? Are you running amavisd chrooted (in which case the file(1) and its database must be available in the jail).
