I know you've said you've tried it before. There was another directory as well In your previous mail you said: "Changing permissions of /var/clam/milter to 777 temporarily does not help". I am confused, did you chmod 777 /var/clam or /var/clam/milter? Clamav-milter will not save to a directory that is 777, since that would be a security risk. You need something like: chmod 775 /var/clam /var/clam/milter chown clamav:clamav /var/clam /var/clam/milter _______________________________________________ http://lists.clamav.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users
