mike,

maybe you want to check this resource:

http://workaround.org/pipermail/workaround-chitchat/2008-February/000796.htm
l

it should resolve your problem with clamav...

as mentioned afterwards, debian-volatile should imho be mandatory to this
tutorial,
since people regularly run into troubles with clamav and its maintnance.

cheers
thomas

Hi guys..

I have just seen this in my logs...

The file it is referring to, is not there, which i guess is the issue, but
anyone know what it is, why it may have gone awol, and where i get a new
one!?

It was all working fine a few days ago,  the last think i have done, was to
add new rules in /etc/amavis/conf.d/55-mysettings.  any thoughts, help would
be appreciated.

Mike..
