As of Clam 0.65, you do not need to modify Clam in any way to work with MD.
Just put this in your config file:

	User defang

and everything (including freshclam --daemon-notify) just works.  If it
upsets you to run as "defang", just make a MIMEDefang-specific Clam config
file and specify it as a command-line option.

David.
