Hi!

Try this:
in exim.conf:
av_scanner = clamd:127.0.0.1 3310

in clamav.conf:
outcomment the LocalSocket Param and use this instead:
TCPSocket 3310
TCPAddr 127.0.0.1

Restart clamd and exim

Now exim will communicate with clam via the loopback instead of the socket file. That's maybe easier that searching for the problem with the socket file...
