I see the problem !
By default, the install doesn't replace the files in /usr/lib/MailScanner !!
So, in /usr/lib/MailScanner, the files was too old :
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1077 Dec 3 2002 clamav-autoupdate
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2104 Apr 1 2006
clamav-autoupdate.dpkg-dist
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1437 Dec 3 2002 clamav-wrapper
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6157 May 27 21:19
clamav-wrapper.dpkg-dist
and so on for all Virus Scanning ...
Now, it's running successfully and I see the updates in the log.
FOR THE NEXT RELEASES :
I think it would be interesting to replace all the files in
/usr/lib/MailScanner by default.
Thanks for all
Dominique
