So, answering my own question with the result from another list, to do
what I want, I need to use the following entry:
/usr/bin/spamd -d -x -L -u nobody --ident-timeout=0 -i 0.0.0.0 -A
###.###.###.###/CIDR-VALUE
I could use for example 10.0.0.0/8 or 192.168.0.0/24 in that place.
It appears the -i is the same as --listen-ip= and you need the ip of
the interface, not the address you want to listed to. The -A gives you
the Allowed IPs which could also be written out with
--allowed-ips=host.
Now, I'm still looking for how to get ClamAV to do the same thing.
