At the moment the manpage hasn't been updated yet. But the example clamav-milter.conf is well commented. See http://lurker.clamav.net/message/20081205.152347.a7d7c9ee.en.html for more details.

Re: [Clamav-users] attempting to use clamav from svn...
Thanks for the suggestions. I've written a /usr/local/etc/clamav-milter.conf, which seems to be parsed ok, and am now starting clamav-milter with no parameters. I get the error ERROR: Failed to initiate streaming/fdpassing and the sender is being sent a tempfail. Where should I be looking to fix this? Do I need to be running clamd as well, and should this be using a separate socket to that used for sendmail??

I get the error ERROR: Failed to initiate streaming/fdpassing and the sender is being sent a tempfail. Where should I be looking to fix this? Do I need to be running clamd as well, I'm pretty sure that a dev said the new version of the milter (the SVN one) requires clamd to be running. The reason for this was that the having the old milter had a lot of duplicate code from clamd and was outdated. and should this be using a separate socket to that used for sendmail?? Um, if I understand you correctly, yes. clamav-milter wants to talk to clamd using a socket of some type. If clamd is running locally, then it'll be a named socket rather than a TCP socket. This socket would be different than the milter socket that sendmail uses to talk to the clamav-milter.
