Hi,

from your DpkgTerminalLog.txt:

####
Starting amavisd: The value of variable $myhostname is "Big-Steve", but should have been
  a fully qualified domain name; perhaps uname(3) did not provide such.
  You must explicitly assign a FQDN of this host to variable $myhostname
  in /etc/amavis/conf.d/05-node_id, or fix what uname(3) provides as a host's
  network name!
(failed).
####

Please change in "/etc/amavis/conf.d/05-node_id" the $myhostname

or change "/etc/hosts" to the FQDN of your host

Jörg
