ClamAV sends infected attachments

[Mister PO]

Hi,

I have just upgraded postfix to release 2.1.5.

"input attribute" stuff has disappeared but postfix crashes with a
postfix/postfix-script: fatal: the Postfix mail system is already running
message....

I have no zombie postfix process...

Here is My MailScanner.conf file :

Max Children = 5
Run As User = postfix
Run As Group = postfix
Queue Scan Interval = 5
Incoming Queue Dir = /var/spool/postfix/hold
Outgoing Queue Dir = /var/spool/postfix/incoming
Incoming Work Dir = /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming
Quarantine Dir = /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine
PID file = /var/run/MailScanner.pid
Restart Every = 14400
MTA = postfix
Sendmail = /usr/sbin/sendmail
Sendmail2 = /usr/sbin/sendmail
Incoming Work User = postfix
Incoming Work Group = postfix
Quarantine User =
Quarantine Group =
Quarantine Permissions = 0640
Max Unscanned Bytes Per Scan = 1000000000
Max Unsafe Bytes Per Scan = 500000000
Max Unscanned Messages Per Scan = 30
Max Unsafe Messages Per Scan = 30
Max Normal Queue Size = 800

Maximum Archive Depth = 3
Find Archives By Content = yes
Virus Scanning = yes
Virus Scanners = clamav
Virus Scanner Timeout = 1800
Deliver Disinfected Files = no
Silent Viruses =  HTML-IFrame
Still Deliver Silent Viruses = no
Non-Forging Viruses = Joke/ OF97/ WM97/ W97M/
Block Encrypted Messages = no

Dangerous Content Scanning = yes
Allow Partial Messages = no
Allow External Message Bodies = no
Allow IFrame Tags = no
Log IFrame Tags = no
Allow Form Tags = yes
Allow Script Tags = yes
Allow WebBugs = yes
Allow Object Codebase Tags = no
Convert Dangerous HTML To Text = no
Filename Rules = %etc-dir%/filename.rules.conf
Filetype Rules = %etc-dir%/filetype.rules.conf
Quarantine Infections = no
Quarantine Silent Viruses = no
Quarantine Whole Message = no
Quarantine Whole Messages As Queue Files = no
Language Strings = %report-dir%/languages.conf
Hide Incoming Work Dir = yes
Include Scanner Name In Reports = no

Any idea ?
