This will prevent an error during installation. You should allow it to overwrite files (like /etc/init.d/amavis) as it finds them. Prepare ahead of time what settings you will need to change. Most settings can go in the 50_user file (the last file read, so settings here will usually override settings in other files). After installation, edit 15-content_filter_mode to enable spam and virus checks (disabled by default). Ideally you would set up a staging area with all the files completely configured beforehand which could immediately be copied over after installation.
