I _must_ say that the server where I have had the problem is my primary
mx. It's a 4.9-STABLE box. The mail load processed on this server is, on
average, something like below:

Looks like it's twice your volume, but that should not be the problem afaiac.
Is it possible that some params in my clamav.conf (other than the ScanMail,
ScanRaR) are causing the failure? BTW, you haven't said what version you are
running. Could you kindly send your clamav.conf off list?
cheers
