The system user 'amavis' that is created when amavis is installed is
completely independant from the amavis user that is required for it's
SQL actions.
The MySQL user/password it wants will have to match the one you've
configured in /etc/amavis/amavisd.conf - I personally don't use it so
I can't help you further, but they're seperate!
