Is your server's loopback interface working (that it can successfully resolve 127.0.0.1)?

Other suspect settings:
The content_filter ("amavis") must be setup as transport in the master.cf with the same name. In this case, it's called "smtp-amavis" in the master.cf, not "amavis".

That may be the reason, why the queue manager fails to connect to the transport layer and therefore postfix fails to accept the mail.

And you should check the correct port back with your amavisd.conf. Maybe the Port you're referencing in the content_filter is not correct.

How do we then add it to the Transport.db then?

Plesk seems to generate this file itself and I can't see how to add to it:
/var/spool/postfix/plesk/transport
 
i hate plesk every day little bit more.

No doubt making some t-shirts or bumper stickers with that very quote can be tempting as is the case with any complex ecosystem.

As previously suggested, have you started by making this change?

Code:
content_filter = amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024

to
Code:
content_filter = smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024
 
Ok we worked out what we were trying to do
Put the transports in here so Plesk didn't overwrite:
/etc/postfix/transport

Then ran this to make the .db file.
postmap /etc/postfix/transport

This may be a little different to what you were trying to do (we were trying to throttle email to certain domains).
