I am another clamav user with Solaris 9 SPARC and Sun's sendmail, so this is not an official response to your bug report. Why not run freshclam from a crontab entry? I have freshclam running twice a day and I always get a mail message, even when there is a problem such as the MD5 checksum error, et. al. that have occurred recently. Have you tried running clamav-milter? I have no problems with that setup. It even picked up a message with the recent bagel worm just shortly after I read about it on the net.
