Even if you build the RPM yourself from the tarball ("rpmbuild -ta 
mimedefang.tar.gz"), you need to enable it in the filter. The package 
disables a lot of things to avoid dependencies, so that you don't have to 
install every conceivable 3rd party package to get MD's RPM to install.

My filter not only enables clamd but also specifies the socket location, 
because different Clam RPM's put the socket in different places. (I'm using 
the one from Fedora Extras.)

$Features{'Virus:CLAMD'} = 1;
$ClamdSock  = "/var/run/clamd.mimedefang/clamd.sock";
