Comment 1 Philip Prindeville 2011-12-04 01:51:04 UTC 
Actually, the utils.c portion of the patch is unnecessary.

Skoll has reviewed my patch but has suggested an alternative strategy; no patch has yet been posted.
Comment 4 Robert Scheck 2011-12-26 02:35:53 UTC 
Any update here?

(In reply to comment #4)
> Any update here?

Yes, indeed. It's been fixed upstream and I've posted a patch which bumps to that version.
Comment 9 Philip Prindeville 2012-01-20 21:13:23 UTC 
I'm testing 2.73-BETA-3 on Centos6 + EPEL and Fedora 16 right now.

I'd add the following /usr/share/doc/mimedefang-%{version}/README.clamd file:

====

Starting with mimedefang-2.73, integration of mimedefang and clamd is significantly easier.

That said, some manual steps are still required:

(1) add the user clam to the defang group after installing mimedefang

    usermod -a -G defang clam

(2) find and modify the following lines in /etc/clamd.conf:

    LocalSocketGroup defang
    LocalSocketMode 660

    and optionally disable the TCP listener if you are only using the UNIX socket from mimedefang (below):

    #TCPSocket 3310
    #TCPAddr 127.0.0.1

(3) enable MD_ALLOW_GROUP_ACCESS=yes in /etc/sysconfig/mimedefang

(4) configure /etc/mail/mimedefang-filter to use clamd via UNIX socket:

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

(5) restart the mimedefang and clamd services (clamd first).
