No, you need to upgrade MailScanner also in order to get support for the
0.94 version of clamav.
See the changelog http://www.mailscanner.info/ChangeLog
Current thinking seems to be in favor of using clamd installed from
rpmforge packages instead of clamavmodule.
So:
Install latest beta of MailScanner.
yum install clamd from rpmforge repo (search the wiki for "clamd" for
complete instructions).
If your spamassassin is out of date, install it from Jules's easy
install package, but tell it not to install clamav.
