Make sure that LocalSocket in clamd.conf points to the same socket as in 
amavisd.conf

For example my clamd.conf says "LocalSocket /tmp/clamd" and in amavisd.conf 
under @av_scanners = (
 ['ClamAV-clamd',
   \&ask_daemon, ["CONTSCAN {}\n", "/tmp/clamd"],
   qr/\bOK$/, qr/\bFOUND$/,
   qr/^.*?: (?!Infected Archive)(.*) FOUND$/ ],

Subject: [Clamav-users] Absolute Newbie needs help

Dear all

I am an absolute newbie with postfix, amavis and clamav. I had set up an 
installation on Fedora7 with postfix 2.4.2 , amavis-new and clamav.
Without content and virus filtering everything worked fine, but when i tried to 
filter virus affected emails i ran into the following error message in my log 
file.

Does anyone know what to do?

I would appreciate any help on this topic ?

Kind regards
