And make sure you enter the same pathname in your clamd.conf for the
socket - whatever you use.

I spent an hour or so tracking down the cause of "451 4.3.0 Problem
running virus-scanner" on a test server only to find I had very
carefully specified two slightly different pathnames for the clamd
socket.  :(

This would be the *third* time I've done that.
