This can happen when MTA's timeout setting on waiting for response to DATA is longer that a timeout of a content filter. MTA times out and requeues a message, while content filter continues with processing and at the end delivers the message, on every MTA attempt. Check your option '-o smtp_data_done_timeout' in master.cf on your smtp service feeding amavisd (usually named smtp-amavis).
