Clamd is up and running, hence the clamd.exim entries. My concern is that it
isn't being called for all suitable messages, i.e. not the ones I'm
submitting.
I am testing with eicar and they are getting delivered. I am doing this
using:
[gary@ollie2 ~]$ echo test|mutt gary@??? -a eicar.txt -s "EICAR
TEST"
On top of this live virus emails are getting through.

The avescanner needed the run file /var/run/aveserver. I could not find
anything like that file on my server. However, I did manage to convert an old
sophie script to work with Kaspersky.
That is why I thought I'd try that. However, because of the error mesage from
EXIM, the script isn't getting working.
