Jason,

In MailScanner.conf, did you also set this?

	Incoming Work User = clamav
	Incoming Work Group = clamav

This was what my system was missing. I had set the group and the 
permissions, but it was only when I set "Incoming Work User" to "clamav" 
that it started working as expected.

Hope this helps.

Chris
