Likely incorrect since you specified the text file that has the PID of
the last time the clamd daemon was started. I think you probably
meant to use the unix socket file. I do it that way, here is what it
looks like on my machines:
CentOS58[root@ivwm52 ~]# grep clam /etc/exim/*
/etc/exim/exim.conf:av_scanner = clamd:/var/clamav/clamd.sock

This will also work in that it will try to connect to a virus scanning
daemon listening on 127.0.0.1 port 3310 and it assumes that it's
"local" so it only passes the filename or filenames that it wants to
to scan and waits for a response.
As you can see by my example, I prefer the former.
