Richard,

 There's been some conversation on the clamav list about problems with
the config files since upgrading to 0.88.1 (even not associated with
mimedefang).

you should check your clamav config files to make sure you don't have
more than one space between the directive and the value, specifically in
relation to the LocalSocket directive.

apparently while the following works:

LocalSocket /tmp/name/of/socket/file

the following is broken in 0.88.1:

LocalSocket  /tmp/name/of/socket/file    (notice the extra space?)

So far on the clamav users list there's no talk about a patch or a fix
for this problem other than to check your config files for extraenous
spaces.

hope this helps.

Alan
