I don't have a lot of other details, but I'll just pipe in a "me too" here. I
did see way too many clamd processes this morning, but 'monit' may have
started them if it thought something was wrong. I'm not using milter, though
(Exiscan). I've been seeing some timeouts like above every once in a while
with 20031206. I upgraded to 20031209 today and still am seeing a few. I
don't remember seeing these timeouts with previous versions. I captured one
of the emails that was triggering it and it was a (very long/big) bounce.
BTW, if anyone is interested, here's my Exiscan ACL recipe for making virus
scanning fail-safe (keeps passing email if clamd has problems):
warn log_message = This message contains a virus/malware ($malware_name)
demime = *
malware = *
set acl_m1 = 1
deny message = This message contains a virus/malware ($malware_name)
condition = ${if ={$acl_m1}{1}{1}{0}}
warn message = X-Virus-Scanned: Scanned by Clam Antivirus
condition = ${if ={$acl_m1}{1}{0}{1}}
