Package: amavisd-new
Version: 20030616p10-5
Severity: wishlist

At present, the only sender which can receive notifications is the address 
from envelope. In case of several well-known trojans, one can suppress 
notifying fake senders. And that's all. The administrator also
cannot filter his own notifications by sender.

I think, the existing logic of notifications should be improved.

Amavis-new have possibility to trace Received headers and thus it knows the
last MTA/MUA in the chain.

A concept of "controlling networks" needed. The administrator may be 
interested which host in controlling networks sends unwanted mail, and
thus should receive corresponding notifications.

Notifications about (virus|spam) activity from external, non-controlling 
networks may be completely uninterested to the receiver's administrator. But 
probably, (abuse|postmaster)@senderdomain should receive those notifications.
The senderdomain portion could be achieved from a whois request on last
address in Received chain.
