You need to put it back how it was before you installed amavis.

Let MailScanner take over SpamAssassin for you. Individual
.spamassassin/user_prefs files won't be used, but everything that people
usually want to customise can be configured on a per-user or per-domain (or
per-anything else) basis using MailScanner rulesets. Read
/etc/MailScanner/rules/* for more information on rulesets.
