What version of clamav-milter?
What operating system?
Are you scanning outgoing as well as incoming messages?
Are you scanning on the same machine that the milter is running on? The
milter is capable of running on a separate machine from clamd, indeed it can
talk to multiple clamds on different machines.

Clamav-milter included with clamd .65
RH9
Scanning both incomming and outgoing
The primary smtp has niether the milter or clamd.  It uses the milter and
clamd installed on server2.  Connecting via tcp sockets.
The server running clamd and clamav-milter never breaks a sweat cpu stress
wise.  However, for some reason the connection for user send mail to the
main server takes a longer than normal time.  Is there not a setting to have
the mail server accept the message and close the client connection, then
scan it, then if necessary send the bounce back?  As it sits it is leaving
the connection open while it waits to do the scan... This is not good from a
users point of view.
