Make sure you have the latest SpamAssassin installed in the right 
places. "MailScanner -v" should show the Mail::SpamAssassin version 
number as "3.002004".

You probably also want to make sure you have clamd or clamavmodule 
installed. clamd is probably better for you.

It successfully found the eicar test 'virus', which is what you want it 
to say.
You should have all the optional modules installed, apart from SAVI.
