Upgrade to libnet-1.21, or downgrade to libnet-1.19,
or upgrade amavisd-new to 2.5.1 and forget about libnet.


amavisd-new-2.5.0 release notes :

- abandon the use of libnet (modules Net::SMTP and Net::Cmd), replaced by
  own code to implement client-side SMTP and LMTP protocol support, with a
  full support for pipelining and IPv6. Some of my issues with Net::SMTP go
  back to year 2002, but the one that broke camel's back is a 3+ months
  status quo in not fixing a serious misfeature introduced in 1.20, which
  mangles 8-bit characters in mail, causing a series of support questions,
  and even affecting some larger service providers without them realizing
  there is a problem. Here are some relevant bug reports:
    http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=24835
    http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=2608
    http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=2607
    http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=14875
    http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=9394

  P.S. libnet-1.21 eventually fixed the UTF8 encoding problem and
  added support for ENVID and AUTH options; other issues are still open
  (e.g. split code/text in smtp status, no pipelining support, no LMTP);
