Look in your clamd.conf and see where it's placing the socket, if it's using
UNIX sockets at all. It's not /tmp/clamd. You can also change the clamd
settings to use 127.0.0.1 if you are not using UNIX sockets, but it appears
you have not matched your MailScanner settings to your actual clamd settings
