IMHO, this bug should be added as a security issue. In my setup, the cron script emails the amavis user. There was no alias to root added by the installation scripts, therefore, the user who set up the system will not receive the mail. This is a potential denial of service vulnerability. By flooding the account with mail, disk space could be consumed unchecked. Anyone setting up amavis with any of the docs i've seen for Ubuntu won't even know the account has mail.
