The clamd.conf file says that the pid and clamd-socket files are supposed to be in /var/lib/clamav. The databases definitely are there, but I see no pid - that said, just as quickly as it broke, it seems to have fixed itself using port 3310 (invisible pid notwithstanding). But that didn't fix the amavis processes just wanting to nap. By the time it was done I ended up with more than 1000 messages in my mail queue to be processed, and somehow they started processing again just to spite me more than anything I think! My biggest issue with these "lazy amavis processes" as I've come to call them, is that I can never seem to find a common solution that will fix it each time, and also because it's generally so far between incidents (I've had it happen about 5 times in the 3 or so years I've used this setup) that when it happens I start pulling my hair out. And then it almost seems like as suddenly as the problem occurs, it goes away. I really have no idea if the clamav issue had anything at all to do with the bigger problem, but it did eventually all get sorted out. Thanks.
