If anyone is using amavis + clamav on their mail server could you drop me a line? I’m getting an error that I can not figure out–it doesn’t make any sense. It’s the only thing holding me back from finishing this mail server.

I’ve made sure the /var/lib/clamav/clamd.ctl is chown’d clamav:amavis. I’ve added clamav to the amavis group (and visa versa for extra measure). I don’t know why it wouldn’t have access to that file. Any ideas?
