Yes, that bugzilla is the correct place to file bugs for EPEL packages.

Here's the link:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora%20EPEL

Or you can get to the right place by clicking to file a "New" bug on the
top menu bar, selecting "Fedora" and then "Fedora EPEL".

Then file your bug report against amavisd-new in the "Component" box.

They will be interested to receive bug reports from ALL users,
regardless if genuine or clone (RHEL, CentOS, Scientific Linux etc).

Hope that helps.
