I figured out what was wrong... When using clamdscan... The scanner daemon is what is actually doing the work...
Under the default debian install of clamav-daemon, the daemon runs as user clamav. This user does not have permission to access /var/spool/qmailscan/tmp Need to dpkg-reconfigure clamav-daemon and tell it to run as user qscand ... If you're running freshclam you need to fix that to (you can edit the configs in /etc/clamav directly)... With clamav running as a new user it won't start until you change the permissions on /var/lib/clamav, /var/log/clamav and /var/run/clamav to be owned by qscand also... Alternatively I guess you could install qmail-scanner as user clamav and then you wouldn't have all that mucking around Hope this helps...
