It has a LOT of new code, both upstream and for the Debian packaging.
Upgrades are safe _if_ you remove any amavis* packages first, and watch
out for any left-over crap in dpkg-statoverride --list.
Your old config file in /etc/amavisd.conf is ignored, it is now in
/etc/amavis/amavisd.conf. The config file is completely incompatible
with old amavis, amavis-ng, and it has been changed a lot from old
amavisd-new.
The package has undergone minimal testing. Use at your risk. Amavisd-new
itself is the most reliable and functional of the amavis-* lot in my
real-world experience (especially when used as a SMTP->SMTP forwarding
proxy).

Interface between MTA and virus scanner/content filters
AMaViS is a script that interfaces a mail transport agent (MTA) with
one or more virus scanners, and spamassassin (optional).
.
AMaViS supports all MTAs through its generic SMTP filter mode (ideal
for postfix and exim), and it also has sendmail milter support.

Changes: amavisd-new (20021227p1-2) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Cleanup debian/* for lintian and linda-cleaness, and arch all
* Add myself to uploaders
* Spamassassin support is runtime-selectable, so now we ship with a default
"@bypass_spam_checks_acl = qw( . );" (i.e. disabled), and we can move
spamassassin to Suggests
* Move nomarch to Suggests, since all other unpackers are there
* Add libdigest-md5-perl to Depends: for better woody compatibility
* Switch to debhelper mode 4, since we have a initscript (invoke-rc.d)
* Rewrite most of the initscript so as to have it far more robust
* Rename init script to /etc/init.d/amavis
* Support ephemeral /var/run, do not ship /var/run/amavis in the deb anymore
* Rework postinst to be a bit more resilient on the adduser part, add
versioned dependency to adduser 3.34 or better
* Make postrm indepondent, by not failing if parts of what we want to remove
aren't there anymore
* Updated and modified package description a bit
* Wrote amavisd(8) manpage
* Moved config files to /etc/amavis/
* Easy-to-localize template system for the notifications,
in /etc/amavis/<lang>, using the new read_text support
* Add pt_BR localization
