Try sending yourself an email containing the Eicar Anti-Virus Test String (try both raw and zipped versions in different emails) and see if they get detected. http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm If both do, the problem is that your ClamAV signatures aren't up to date. (Run freshclam) If the raw one gets picked up and the zipped one goes through, there's something wrong with the way your mail software and ClamAV are handling files. Give us more details about how you're trying to do this. If neither gets picked up, then just try a plain clamscan on a file containing Eicar - something's badly wrong with either your ClamAV installation or the configuration of how emails are supposed to get scanned by it.
