From the amavisd-new Changelog: (>= 2.3.0) ...release from quarantine functionality is now a built-in feature; a message release can be requested via enhanced AM.PDP protocol. There is a new utility program 'amavisd-release', which currently mostly serves to demonstrate how to request releasing of a quarantined file. Currently the supported quarantine types are: plain file, gzipped plain file with a name ending in .gz, and a SQL-based quarantine. Currently not supported is a release from a BSMTP-encoded plain file or from a mbox (Unix-style) mailbox quarantine file. Unfortunatelly this Utility will not be installed by emerge Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. locate amavisd-release Actual Results: ... nothing found ...

Still not fixed in amavisd-new-2.3.3 You have to change the following line in the ebuild: from dosbin amavisd amavisd-agent amavisd-nanny into dosbin amavisd amavisd-agent amavisd-nanny amavisd-release
amavisd-release gets installed by 2.3.3-r1, fresh in portage. Sorry it took so long.
