I have ClamAV 0.75 installed on a RH Linux server.  It's configured to operate with SendMail using the Clamav-milter.

 

I noticed that infected mail started slipping through and found the many errors similar to the following in maillog:

 

Jan 10 15:33:49 ermail sendmail[5685]: j0AKXnnD005685: Milter (clmilter): error connecting to filter: Connection refused by /var/clamav/clmilter.sock

 

Jan 10 15:33:49 ermail sendmail[5685]: j0AKXnnD005685: Milter (clmilter): to error state                                                                       

 

Apparently, SendMail can't communicate with the clamav-milter.  Doing a ps -Af | grep clam, I don't see any services running that I would associate with the ClamAV milter.  What is the correct procedure for starting the milter service?  How can I troubleshoot this further?

 

I've read both the milter documentation in the ClamAV manual and the readme files that ship with the milter.  The two conflict somewhat and I don't know which of the two is accurate.  Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!
