Exim runs als none privileged user "exim".
I don't claim to have any idea what happened, but all of a sudden it
started working. I am glad to see it working but hate it when things
change mysteriously. Anyway, as long as it's working I won't complain
very loud about not understanding WHY.

My bad. I pasted the wrong line. Sorry,
av_scanner = clamd:/var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl
And it's enabled. I'm using the exim4u config patches, and in
exim4u_global_spam_virus:
# ClamAV Global Setting
# When enabled, Exim4U uses ClamAV to scan incoming mail for viruses during

While testing, I noticed something else completely bizzare. If I run the
malware test as root and place the test file in /root (i.e. # exim
-bmalware ~/eicar.com.txt) get the error I mentioned. But if I put the
same file in /tmp then it doesn't error out:
# exim -bmalware /tmp/eicar.com.txt
No
I was looking at a message that had somehow gotten through my spam
filters to see if I could figure out why, when I discovered a line in
the header that said the message had not been virus scanned by exim.
THAT was a surprise. I have clamd running and the exim.conf points to it
(spamd_address
