Just wanted to double check this, because it is counter-intuitive to me. I
thought amavis called SA 'from scratch' each time it wanted to use it, so
any change in SA config would be picked up immediately (because SA must
reload its config each time it is called by amavis as there is no running
SA daemon). If that is not the case, can someone explain why?
