The newer versions of MailScanner are needed with the latest version of clam.
4.72.5 or later ONLY works with clam 0.94 + . If you revert to older clam, you
also need to revert to older mailscanner.

1/11/2008 New in Version 4.72.5-1
=================================
* New Features and Improvements *
1 Added support for ClamAV 0.94. Note that this has necessitated removal of
  complete support for earlier versions of ClamAV as the command-line settings
  are incompatible. So only use this version if you have upgraded to the latest
  ClamAV 0.94.

It is a minor change to run clamd. You can get clamd running and make all the
config changes first. Then you only have to change the line "virus scanners ="
in mailscanner.conf to get it using clamd. That way you can test clamd, and
set up whatever monitoring you want to do to make sure it stays running before
you depend on the daemon to catch the nasties.
