This most probably will happen whenever POP3 proxy with spamassassin enabled will be started before SMTP proxy.

spamd run's as root and will create that file if it does not exist. Amavis then can't write to it since it is owned by root.

If amavis starts as first, amavis creates the file with the correct parameters.

-> Let spamd run as user amavis
