While sending email, my /var/log/mail.log and /var/log/syslog is getting

...funny bit is, that I receive emails just fine and the virus-email
(eicar.com) got blocked, but the errors are in the log. The folders like
/var/lib/amavis/tmp/amavis-20081125T084632-19445 also don't get
automatically deleted.
