Actually after some more investigation, I found out that clamd seems to
hang (at least in some Linux installations), if in startup the stderr and
stdout streams stop existing, which happens if it is started like this:

  /usr/local/sbin/clamd
  /usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter -lo local:/var/run/clmilter.sock

if, instead it is started with:

  /usr/local/sbin/clamd >/dev/null 2>&1
  /usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter -lo local:/var/run/clmilter.sock >/dev/null 2>&1

it does not hang, when the /(root) user logs out from the system. Is this
something which is properly documented, or have I just missed the
documentation somewhere?

yours,
