I found this link super helpful and thought I had this in the bag
based on how straight forward the guide was however I had one problem.

When I installed clamav using my package manager from Debian, I did
not get clamav-daemon, just clamav-freshclam however it did auto
install /etc/clamav/clamd.conf.
I followed all steps and rebooted the server. I then checked running
processes in a program called "htop" and I did not see "clamd" or
"clamav" listed anywhere which I found strange however I do see amavis
running. I then checked to see if clamd or clamav was running:

email:~# /etc/init.d/clamav-daemon status
clamd is running.
email:~# /etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam status
freshclam is running.

It appears that the two daemons are running but I can't see them in
"htop" for whatever reason. I then sent myself an email and checked
the headers - I was looking for a section in the received headers
labeled "X-Virus-Scanned: amavisd-new at example.net" and I don't see
that anywhere in my email headers now. How do I know if Amavisd-new
and ClamAV are working? I see the daemons running for Amavisd-New but
not Clamav even though it shows they're running.

Thanks for any help again!

Here is what is installed:
