You don't need milter or the daemon. MailScanner doesn't use them. It
invokes the command line version (clamscan) for every batch scanned.

Have you set Virus Scanner to clamav in MailScanner.conf? Otherwise it
will not be used for scanning, only the signatures will be updated.

You can find all info necessary in the mail log, grep for Clam and
FOUND. I recommend you go to www.testvirus.org to test your setup.
