I don't think amavisd-new calls razor at all. SpamAssassin calls razor.
In my experience amavisd-new will only log something related to SpamAssassin
if SpamAssassin croaks (or you run amavisd-new in 'debug-sa' mode), so
I don't think you will ever find razor stuff in your /var/log/mail.


To get your log working:
Try either creating /var/amavisd/.razor/razor-agent.log manually (and
then change ownership and permissions) or simply run:
su amavisd -c 'razor-admin -create'
which should create the file also (with the correct ownership and
permissions). In my experience, version 2.72 had some issues where
all the files may not be created when running 'razor-admin -create'
so I suggest running BOTH these commands AS YOUR AMAVISD-NEW USER,
and that may solve the problem...

su amavisd -c 'razor-admin -create'
su amavisd -c 'razor-admin -register'

This should set up razor for 'amavisd' with everything the
way it should be (we hope, version 2.72 was a little buggy).

Since you have a file named /etc/razor/razor-agent.conf, that file
will be used as a system wide .conf file.

If the files are still not created properly, try removing (or mv'ing)
/etc/razor and try again.
