Hi, Just a quick note to the list to point out that the recent changes appear not to have fixed the longstanding problem with clamav-milter's connections to clamd dying and then gradually growing the process list.
I removed clamav from my mail setup a couple of weeks ago due to this, but put yesterdays CVS snapshot back in this morning after seeing the recent posts about the timeout/thread errors being fixed. Sadly, this hasn't solved my problems with it - the new install ran OK for about 35 minutes before falling over. Excerpts from the log (just clamav-milter messages) are appended below, anonymised to protect the guilty :-). Mike.
