Way up in this thread, you mentioned updating amavisd-new from epel plus
clam\* from epel. In addition to the user clamav vs clam issue, epel
amavisd uses service clamd.amavisd, whereas the rpmforge amavisd uses
service clamd.
# rpm -q amavisd-new clamd postgrey
amavisd-new-2.8.0-8.el6.noarch
clamd-0.98.3-1.el6.i686
postgrey-1.34-1.el6.noarch
# service clamd status
clamd is stopped
# service clamd.amavisd status
clamd.amavisd (pid 2860) is running...
The use of clamd.amavisd actually simplifies the setup since you don't
need to add group amavis to clam.
# id clam
uid=493(clam) gid=493(clam) groups=493(clam)
Looking through my rpmforge > epel conversion notes, the other
significant issue was to find folders/files with owner:group
clamav:clamav and chown to clam:clam. I think you already corrected that
problem.
There are also several differences in the default rpmforge vs epel
amavisd.conf, but I don't think any would stop it from working.
I converted 3 mail servers to epel amavisd/clam\* about a year ago and I
think all conversion issues have been resolved, but you never know. :-)
