I just ran all the tests against ClamAV version devel-20040205 and
clamav-milter version 0.66k.  All 15 of the Eicar tests were caught by
Clamav!  It also caught #16 which also includes the Eicar test virus. 
The only test that includes a test virus (Eicar) that it did not catch
was #17... and as for as I can tell after a brief look that one does not
really have the Eicar test but exploits an Outlook bug to cause it to
incorrectly interpret the data as the Eicar virus.

Try upgrading to the 20040205 development version.
