OK, everyone.
On my CentOS 5 main and test servers, I deleted the old database files
and ran freshclam.
After the files had downloaded, I restarted clamd without re-enabling
it in simcontrol to see if the compile errors started up again. After
a few runs through clam's self check, no errors present, so I
re-enabled clam in simcontrol and everything is operating as it should
be. I'm going to stay up for a bit and watch it, but I think the
latest daily build has fixed things.
Come Monday, it's time to find a new server and start preparing to set
up a new toaster.
Stay safe out there.

Tony,
This is an issue with a signature in the daily clamav database
update. It affects servers running on CentOS 5 due to the fact that
they have a version of pcre that clamav can't link to properly to
form the database. CentOS 6 and 7 aren't affected. Supposedly the
clamav folks have built a version of daily that won't break mail
delivery, but I don't know for sure. If you turn off clamav in
simcontrol and recompile qmail cab, then mail delivery will resume
unaffected. You won't have virus scanning on incoming mail, but at
least delivery will work.
Check the clamav mailing list:
lists.clamav.net/pipermail/clamav-users
<http://lists.clamav.net/pipermail/clamav-users> for a better
explanation.
They won't support clamav 99.3 on pre-CentOS 6 installs, so looks
like it's finally time to
upgrade those old servers, eh?

Hi folks,
This is Tony sorry to have to use a Yahoo acount but my mail server
broke this morning at 8am.
Submission and SMTP servers are now responding to connections
with this error...
qmail-smtpd: qq soft reject (mail server temporarily rejected
message (#4.3.0))
I have made no changes so I am at a loss to the issue. Clamd is at
100% on
a single core might that be the issue?
TIA.
Tony
