As you haven't stated how you call clamav I'm not sure if it's relevant, but I used to have the same problem. I run on a windows box and call clamscan (not clamdscan) on each email. If I didn't use the --mbox option those same virri would slip through. Since using that I've had 100% catch rate. i.e Nothing has been picked up by any other application after passing through Clamav. cheers Owen Dare.
