My amavis logs to syslog:

# true (e.g. 1) => syslog;  false (e.g. 0) => logging to file
$DO_SYSLOG = 1;                   # (defaults to false)
#$SYSLOG_LEVEL = 'user.info';     # (defaults to 'mail.info')


there is something in your logfile there? (/var/log/maillog or 
/var/log/messages or something :-))

Perhaps you sould look at that.
Also changing in your master.cf file

# ==========================================================================
# service type  private unpriv  chroot  wakeup  maxproc command + args
#               (yes)   (yes)   (yes)   (never) (100)
# ==========================================================================
smtp      inet  n       -       n       -       -       smtpd

to

smtp      inet  n       -       n       -       -       smtpd -v

should give you verbose logging, that might help solving the problem...
Let us know what happends ...
