You can set @score_sender_maps in amavisd.conf, but it is not
recommended.  Hard-coding values in amavisd.conf is never a good idea
for settings that users should be able to modify themselves; that's one
of the reasons Maia was developed, after all.  The @score_sender_maps
feature is effectively just a "soft whitelist/blacklist", letting you
assign a positive or negative score boost/penalty to the mail if it
comes from a specific sender.  In most regards, this feature is
duplicated by a combination of Maia's whitelists/blacklists, and by
SpamAssassin's AWL (Auto-Whitelist) feature.
