clamd scans individual files you tell it to scan (see the documentation to
learn how to tell it to scan something), without having to initialize the
entire virus database for each scan (like clamscan).  Rather than running
clamscan for each email attachment we need to scan, we just tell clamd to
scan the indiviual files and report back.  You can process a much higher
volume of files this way.
