Amvavisd-new (192.168.0.2) and the resulting messages are to
be forwarded to yet a 3rd server: 192.168.0.3, what should
my notify_method and forward_method be like ?

$forward_method = 'smtp:[192.168.0.3]:10025';
The default:
#$notify_method = $forward_method;
should serve your needs. $forward_method lets amavisd-new
know how to
get to the next-hop server (typically the same server it's
already on
- but in your case a different server) for mail amavisd-new
has
received. $notify_method lets amavisd-new know how to get to
the
next-hop server for notification messages that amavisd-new
creates
(notes to administrators about viruses, banned files etc.
for
example). It's rare that they would need to be different.
