how do we know if it's an error or a bug unless some one lets us know.

Why are you even bothering about that, even if one of the core devs is asking you to use the bugtracker? Report it as a bug, if it is not a bug, it will be marked as such and closed. If it is a bug it will most likely be followed up to be fixed.

please check this:

cd /var/spool

ls -al qpsmtpd

drwxr-s---   2 qpsmtpd clamav 4096 Aug 27 07:02

If it shows this instead:

drwxr-x---   2 qpsmtpd clamav 4096 Aug 27 07:02

you have to change the group ID:

chmod g+s qpsmtpd

Dunno why it changes, but when I restore a backup, this happens to me and i cant send or receive mail until I make this change...

I have to agree with other people posting here - if you need help, its better to look for it in these forums. If you do report it as a bug, and it turns out its NOT a bug, youve wasted a lot of time and your server could remain down while its bug-ness is debated.

Forums are traditionally used for help - thats just the way it is on the web. Might be better to determine if its a bug here in these user-friendly, easy-to-search forums, and then move it to the tracker if it actually turns out to be. Seems a bit backward the way its being done currently...

The bug (http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4399) is stalled waiting for you to answer a question asked of you on 12th June. You also haven't provided the information requested of you in comment #1 of that bug.

Bug 4399, BTW, concerns an issue with restore from backup, not with clamav update.
