Subject: [exim] clamd av_scanner does not use configured port
I'm using exim-4.69 on Debian Lenny/AMD64. (The package I have installed is
exim-daemon-heavy.)

I'm getting errors in my /var/log/exim4/paniclog:
2009-05-28 20:15:17 1M9m0T-00059K-21 malware acl condition: clamd:

Notice that the port varies, for some reason.

What I think is relevant about my configuration is:
(on the exim4 server)
/etc/exim4/conf.d/main/01_exim4-config_listmacrosdefs-local:
CHECK_DATA_LOCAL_ACL_FILE = CONFDIR/conf.d/local/acl_check_data

/etc/exim4/conf.d/main/02_exim4-config_options-local:
av_scanner = clamd:ichi 3310

/etc/exim4/conf.d/acl/40_exim4-config_check_data:
.ifdef CHECK_DATA_LOCAL_ACL_FILE
.include CHECK_DATA_LOCAL_ACL_FILE
.endif

/etc/exim4/conf.d/local/acl_check_data:
deny
add_header = X-Virus-Scanned: clamav@???
message = This message was detected as possible malware ($malware_name).
malware = */defer_ok

/etc/hosts:
172.20.2.91     ichi.iguanasuicide.net ichi


Any problems with my config? Any work arounds? Is this a known issue?
Anyone have exim talking to clamd on a separate system?

I've reported this a Debian bug, #530963; feel free to add any information to
the bug.
