Looking at a copy of clamav-autoupdate you have:
------
$PackageDir = shift || "/usr/local";

$LogFile = "/tmp/ClamAV.update.log";

$ClamUpdateCommand = "$PackageDir/bin/freshclam";

-----
And since $PackageDir is set from the third column in
/etc/MailScanner/virus.scanners.conf (when called from
update_virus_scanners,
 it seems you need change that from /usr to /usr/local ... provided
you've
installed lcamav to /usr/local (which it seems you've done).
