I am not sure whether \d is supported here. Consider trying [0-9]
instead.

That would have to be
/var/lib/amavis/db/(cache|cache-expiry|snmp|nanny)\.db$ VarFile
to correctly work.

What you have written is kind of identical to
/var/lib/amavis/db/[-cahe|xpirysnm]\.db$ VarFile
and would only cover file names consisting of a single character from
the list between the brackets.

Try the following:

/var/run/amavis/amavisd.lock$ VarFile
/var/lib/amavis/tmp$ VarDir
!/var/lib/amavis/tmp/
/var/lib/amavis/db/__db.[0-9]{3} VarFile
/var/lib/amavis/db/(cache(-expiry)?|snmp|nanny)\.db$ VarFile
/var/lib/amavis/.spamassassin$ VarDir
/var/lib/amavis/.spamassassin/bayes_(toks|seen)$ VarFile
/var/lib/amavis/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist$ VarFile

I'd like to have the !/var/lib/amavis/tmp/ rule to go and replaced by
VarFile/VarDir rules for the file name schemes that amavis uses.

Which amavis package (amavis-ng? amavisd-new? amavis? amavis-perl?)
are we talking about anyway?

Greetings
Marc
