support incremental updates (especially in US, as it seems).
The size of daily.cvd is almost 2MB, and this is hurting some mirrors.
We are going to release a main.cvd update in the first half of April,
I run clamd on a CentOS server, with freshclam, and clamsmtpd to scan mail.
And I use it interfacing with postfix.
However, just clamd alone uses 23 Megabytes when idle!
