When running clamdscan against a file in my home directory I get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ clamdscan testmsg.txt
/home/chris/testmsg.txt: Access denied. ERROR

Sure: make sure whatever uid the clamd daemon is running as has
permissions to access the file if you want to use clamdscan. If it
doesn't, use clamscan instead for that case, or copy the file to /tmp
or someplace like that

The clamd daemon does no have permission to read the file. You can get
around this by redirecting the file via clam
