Usually all that I see are log entries like this

Nothing is logged about the VirusEvent Script.
There may be a way to get that out of clamd, but I'm not sure.
So (if I understand correctly), the VirusEvent should be firing.
What is a suitable command I could use to test that this is firing? I've tried
a few things with ECHO but nothing shows up.
echo won't work. The event script is run by the clamd daemon,
which isn't attached to a terminal.
Maybe some kind've of command to drop some data into a text file or something
like that?
Yes, that should work. A typical use of the event script
would be to trigger an email message to the admin.
