All is not _quite_ perfect however. In calling clamdscan from my script
(itself called from procmail) I get the error:
ERROR: Can't parse clamd configuration file /etc/clamd.conf

Note the config file and location. In order to get it to work (which it
does), I need to declare clamdscan in my script as:
"/bin/clamdscan -c/etc/clamd.d/scan.conf"

So where does it default to /etc/clamd.conf ? I have grepped the whole
of /etc/* and can't find a reference to this location, and there is
no /etc/sysconfig/clamd as there used to be.

I think this is the last remaining mystery. After I have solved this I
will be a very happy bunny!

/etc/clamd.conf is the old location for the config file.  With the
flexibility of systemd allowing multiple daemons running, I think the
packager changed things to use /etc/clam.d/scan.conf but didn't catch
this change for clamdscan.

Yes I know that /etc/clamd.conf is the old location. What I can't work
out is why it still thinks that's where it is. Is it hard-coded
somewhere?

I also run a Mandriva mail server that uses procmail to deliver mail.
Here is a snippet of my IMAP recipe:
:0
VIRUS=| clamdscan --no-summary --stdout - | cut -d' ' -f2 -

[snip] useful recipe (similar to mine). The thing is, for me "clamdscan
--no-summary --stdout" won't work. I need to tell it explicitly where
the config file is. I have this in my script:
CLAMSCAN="/bin/clamdscan -c/etc/clamd.d/scan.conf"
CLAMSCANOPT="--no-summary --stdout"

and call it with ${CLAMSCAN} ${CLAMSCANOPT} - < ${MSGTMP}

The same thing happens on the command line:
# clamdscan -V
ERROR: Can't parse clamd configuration file /etc/clamd.conf
# clamdscan -c /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf -V
ClamAV 0.97.5/15376/Wed Sep 19 19:35:38 2012

Any ideas?

Thanks (yet) again...

Mark

Yes, I would just symlink it.
ln -s /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf /etc/clamd.conf
