Yes, I am using Clamd. Nothing to complain about...a great package!

I'm not running SMTP-Vilter in a chrooted enviroment. Most probably not 
the most sane action, but I want to make sure that the non-chrooted 
setup works perfect before I move up a level higher (chrooted). I #'ed 
out the option and adjusted the different options to the non-chrooted 
situation. The point is that 'just' 3% of all the test-mails is being 
checked by clamd but not by spamd. This means that 97% is checked 
*perfectly* by both clamd and spamd!

Timeouts Sendmail	=> T=C:10m;S:20s;R:20s;E:10m
Timeout vilter-spamd	=> 10s
Timeout vilter-clamd	=> 10s

I'm using the same setup and the same ports as you (minus razor that 
is....).
