Clamd permission error

[Steve Campbell]

I don't think anything that matters isn't 640 mod and clamav.clamav  
owned. The individual files created in the incoming directory are owned 
by clamav as well. An example:

incoming]# ls -al
total 2912
drwx------    8 clamav   clamav       4096 Nov 18 13:42 .
drwxr-xr-x    4 root     root         4096 May 18  2004 ..
drwxr-x---    2 clamav   clamav       4096 Sep  9 07:02 26632
drwxr-x---    4 clamav   clamav       4096 Nov 18 13:41 5625
drwxr-x---    4 clamav   clamav       4096 Nov 18 13:41 5632
drwxr-x---    7 clamav   clamav       4096 Nov 18 13:41 5654
drwxr-x---    2 root     root         4096 Nov 18 11:14 Locks
-rw-------    1 root     root        17408 Nov 18 13:41 Processing.db
-rw-------    1 root     root      2722816 Nov 18 13:42 
SpamAssassin.cache.db
drwx------    2 root     root       200704 Nov 18 13:41 SpamAssassin-Temp

Seems to me to be as it should be or those "Number" folders couldn't be 
created.
