Are you running clamd with INET or UNIX domain sockets? If the former try telneting to clamd and see if it talks.
----------------- cgreen:VMail1:/home/cgreen# telnet -u /var/run/clamav/clamd Trying /var/run/clamav/clamd... No connection. Escape character is '^]'. PING PONG Connection closed by foreign host. cgreen:VMail1:/home/cgreen# -----------------
However, it's probably easier to just try using clamdscan to pass files to clamd for scanning and see if it works. ;-)
If clamdscan works, as a suggestion for an alternate setup he could try using MIMEDefang (www.mimedefang.org). It's a milter that supports clamd by calling clamdscan, and integrates Spamassassin checking/tagging. If you know Perl, it also lets you mangle--err, filter--email with custom Perl filters, too. It's available in ports (/usr/ports/mail/mimedefang).
Note that I've only used it on 4.x servers. I don't see why it wouldn't work on 5.x, but YMMV.
