I have been fighting with this still.  Thank you for all of your
responses and it has helped me learn a good bit.

I am still getting:
--------------------- clam-update Begin ------------------------ 

   daily.cvd updated

**Unmatched Entries**
   WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!: 10 Time(s)
   DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/faq.html: 10 Time(s)
   WARNING: Current functionality level = 4, recommended = 5: 10 Time(s)

 ---------------------- clam-update End -------------------------

If I log into my mailscanner machine and run "freshclam" it returns:
[root at WoodenMS bpumphrey]# freshclam
ClamAV update process started at Fri Jun 17 11:58:41 2005
main.cvd is up to date (version: 32, sigs: 34720, f-level: 5, builder:
tkojm)
daily.cvd is up to date (version: 944, sigs: 1001, f-level: 5, builder:
arnaud)

So this is a success.

When I run the mailscanner update_virus_scanners the log returns:
Jun 17 12:05:28 WoodenMS update.virus.scanners: Found bitdefender
installed
Jun 17 12:05:28 WoodenMS update.virus.scanners: Running autoupdate for
bitdefend
er
Jun 17 12:05:47 WoodenMS update.virus.scanners: Found clamav installed
Jun 17 12:05:47 WoodenMS update.virus.scanners: Running autoupdate for
clamav
Jun 17 12:05:47 WoodenMS ClamAV-autoupdate[27517]: ClamAV did not need
updating
Jun 17 12:05:47 WoodenMS update.virus.scanners: Found generic installed
Jun 17 12:05:47 WoodenMS update.virus.scanners: Running autoupdate for
generic

So everything looks ok there.  Side question - Why does it find a
generic?  My mailscanner.conf says: Virus Scanners = clamav bitdefender

Does anyone know where the error is coming from?
