Works fine for me. Are you sure that this log entry is the one that
was produced after you made the change? Is it possible you have
@blacklist_sender_maps listed twice in amavisd.conf? If so, the last
one wins.

This is my test:

@blacklist_sender_maps = (['garyv at example.com', '.example.net']);

Jun 20 19:46:05 filter amavis[3983]: (03983-03-8) lookup
[blacklist_sender<garyv at example.com>,blacklist_sender] => true,
"garyv at example.com" matches, result="1",
matching_key="garyv at example.com"
