Since your amavis home directory is /var/amavis, what does this say?

ls -l /var/amavis/.spamassassin

If you are using the default settings, the bayes and auto whitelist
databases will be stored there. If you are using SQL, then they will
be stored in the SQL database specified by your settings in local.cf.
There are way to surgically remove items, rather than taking off and
nuking them from outer space.

To remove an address from auto-whitelist:
spamassassin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and to relearn messages marked as spam sa ham:
sa-learn --ham <copy_of_my_message.txt

man sa-learn
man spamassassin-run

It would be better to see what SA rules actually hit however. Setting
$log_level at 2, sending a message from you through and looking in the
mail log noting what SA rules hit (as Noel mentioned) would be a
better approach.
