Here is what I have installed: clamav-lib-0.88.7-1.fc5.i386 clamav-milter-0.88.7-1.fc5.i386 clamav-data-0.88.7-1.fc5.i386 clamav-update-0.88.7-1.fc5.i386 clamav-0.88.7-1.fc5.i386 I can scan any files by command line that I want to.

Anyone have an idea what's wrong? You remembered to restart or reload sendmail, right? Check your maillog for clamav messages. I see some like this: > Dec 29 16:39:17 kjc386 sendmail[3713]: kBTLdGcG003713: Milter add: header: X-Virus-Scanned: ClamAV 0.88.7/2394/Fri Dec 29 08:30:43 2006 on kjc386.framingham.ma.us > Dec 29 16:39:17 kjc386 sendmail[3713]: kBTLdGcG003713: Milter add: header: X-Virus-Status: Clean I don't always see something in the email headers though.
