I wonder if some of you guys could help me identify where an issue lies within my Postfix setup. Let me first say that I have got a completely working Postfix installation that accepts external mail and forwards it on when neccessary and I can also send mail locally using mail/mailx... the problem arrises when I try to use ClamAV milter with Postfix.
When I add the ClamAV milter into main.cf, and attempt to deliver an email from an external source, everything works well with no issues. Mail delivery works as designed and is stopped successfully when I try to send an EICAR test virus from external source but when I try to send an email using mail/mailx locally it doesn't get delivered and I get the following in the logs; Aug 27 09:17:22 mailserver postfix/pickup[17976]: 247B7D006E: uid=0 from=<root> Aug 27 09:17:22 mailserver postfix/cleanup[18369]: warning: connect to Milter service unix:/var/clamav/clmilter.socket: Permission denied Aug 27 09:17:22 mailserver postfix/cleanup[18369]: 247B7D006E: milter-reject: CONNECT from localhost[127.0.0.1]: 4.7.1 Service unavailable - try again later; from=<root@mailserver.sausage.local> Now, due to the fact that local mail IS delivered when I am not using ClamAV, but ISN'T delivered when I do use ClamAV, it may be that it's the configuration of the milter that is the issue rather than the config of Postfix, but I'd like to know why the milter only accepts mail external and not locally.

Thanks John
