You can read about it here for clues about why your test didn't work.

Thanks for these pointers :-)
You're asking the wrong questions...
The proper question is if clamav is installed and working and able
to detect viruses, and your answer is yes.
To test email, include the EICAR as an attachment, and make sure
your email software is able to scan attachments. Since you already
verified that clamav is working and able to detect test viruses, any
failure scanning email is in your email scanning method or software
and not clamav.
