Clamav causes mail to hold in mqueue.in

Don't know if this is relevent to your situation but I had to do the following to get calmav to work with MailScanner

I installed clamav from the Mandrake rpms which put clamscan and freshclam in /usr/bin instead of /usr/local/bin - this meant I had to edit the paths in /usr/lib/MailScanner/clamav-autoupdate and /usr/lib/MailScanner/clamav-wrapper.

I also had to change the 'Minimum Code Status' in MailScanner.conf to 'unsupported' [If your experience with clam is okay you might like to let Julian know to encourage him to boost it up to supported status]
