As of Clam 0.65, you do not need to modify Clam in any way to work with MD. Just put this in your config file:
User defang
and everything (including freshclam --daemon-notify) just works. If it upsets you to run as "defang", just make a MIMEDefang-specific Clam config file and specify it as a command-line option.
Good to know, but there's an additional complication when installing RPM's: The log and run directories, which need to be writable by the user in question, and the lib directory with the virus database downloaded by freshclam. These are created by the clamav RPM at installation time.
Currently I'm hand-changing the ownership on these following installation/update, but it gets undone every time I update the package.
BTW, there's a new 0.66 out tonight to deal with the DoS vulnerability announced today. I found I had to add a "DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net" directive to clamav.conf. It's not documented and replaces the old mirrors.txt file to tell freshclam where to get the DB's from.
