Topic: SME E-Mail - Either SMTP or ClamAV problem

[technostruct]

Hello everyone, thanks for taking the time to read, hope I make sense here.

I've setup SME Server 6.0.1, setup e-mail (Primary domain), and setup Webmail (HTTPS-Only).  I setup the Swerts-Knudsen ClamAV-addon, and it seems to be working well ... until I tried to send e-mail via Webmail.  Now this is a clean setup - nobody's been on the server as yet except me.  I've also got the "admin" and "postmaster" accounts forwarding mail to my account.

I sent an e-mail to the people I created an e-mail account for last night, via Webmail interface, in my account, ... and got the following message (personal details replaced by "xxx":
------------------------------------------------------
The message has been quarantined as
4119e59f-3069.msg

The corresponding logfile has been written to
4119e59f-3069.log


Message headers follow:

Now that looks a whole lot like the ClamAV scanner stopping the e-mail and quarantining it.  That's just strange, too, because I've not sent anything TO the account yet.  How could a virus be propogating ?  I've also got BitDefender scanning all the I-Bays for viruses too ...

Now I'm sure there's details I've left out, ask and ye shall receive them.  I was just so happy to get these items working ... now I'm rather bummed.

I did get smart - I got the updated/webGUI interface update of Amavis-ClamAV, and I was able to release all these back into the queue.  I'll have to see if a reboot helped it at all or not, though.  Link to the WebGUI interface (update?) found here: http://www.pagefault.org/howto/amavis_clam.shtml.

And now I am able to read an improved, specific e-mail error message that tells me what the reasoning was:

"Error: Cannot connect to /var/lib/clamav/clamd.sock."

Now, I've gone through all the Forums and Googled and looked around and it appears to be a SpamAssassin issue.  I swear there's got to be SOME fix for it out there, I just haven't found it yet.

I also see where people are poking at the issue being due to "system specs", which I find very, VERY hard to believe - make sure you tell me why I need to look at specs first, this isn't a MicroCrap WinDump system, I have more faith in it than that.
