If you are using clamav\-milter to balance load between remote clamd daemons on firewall servers you may need to tune the Stream* options. This option allows you to specify the upper limit for data size that will be transfered to remote daemon when scanning a single file. It should match your MTA's limit for a maximum attachment size. Indeed the old stream protocol (STREAM) considers StreamMaxLength 0 as unlimited, and the new stream protocol (INSTREAM) considers it a limit of 0 bytes. I don't see why you would want unlimited stream length though, that is a sure way of filling up your disk.
