When you produce you amended howto please don't forget to post it up. I've copied your original draft and would not like to miss the final version.

Hi Ron

As Alexander Dalloz already mentioned not needing the "define"
statement, I'd like mention also:
file:///usr/share/doc/clamav-milter-*/RPM-clamav-milter.txt states the
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER line should be:

INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav-milter',
`S=local:/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.sock, F=,T=S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')
                                                            ^^^^^
Notice the extra bit at the end that wasn't in your line.

A couple other bits of feedback:

* There's no mention of setting the daemons to start on boot. i.e. a
line such as:
  - /sbin/chkconfig --level 345 clamd/clamav-milter/freshclam on

* Also, to keep to general best practices, the line where you start the
services should use /sbin/service instead of calling the script
directly.

Apart from that, it's a nice, simple-to-follow guide to get ClamAV up
and running.
