I can get scenario 2 to work without a problem and this is how I did it for 
some time before .82 (when clamd scanning was integrated into clamav-milter and 
you no longer needed to run clamd just for clamav-milter)

The problem I have is scenario 3.

machine a has sendmail on it
machine b is a low use box so I would like to run clamav-milter and clamd (if 
its necessary now) on it and have machine a connect to clamav-milter on machine 
b. however I am unable to get clamav-milter to listen on a TCP port on machine b
