 "Can't connect to port 80 of host database.clamav.net (IP:
 88.198.67.125)" is not considered a failure?  Is there something that I
 can add to freshclam.conf to make it so?

A connection problem was considered a failure in the past but it was making more harm than good. In most cases the problem lies at the user's end (keep in mind we have ~2M different IPs downloading the database every day) and according to our tests and user reports with the current settings freshclam can more effectively deal with network errors.

So... there is nothing that an end-user can set that will make the connection error be considered a failure? I would need to go hack at the source code?

Does that "Ignore: Yes" entry automatically expire at some point or is that mirror now dead forever?

I see that all but one of the mirrors marked as "Ignore: Yes" work fine (well, at least they respond to http://ip, which .125 does not). Is there a command I can throw at Clam that will reset that flag? Doesn't look like mirrors.dat is directly editable.

How many connection failures are required before a mirror is taken out of rotation?

That's a total of 0 successes over the past few days for that mirror.
