[Bug 2834] Directories not removed after av_scan
https://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2834

--- Comment #11 from Jeremy Harris <jgh146exb@wizmail.org> ---
I'm wondering if
- you're using ClamAV by sending it the name of a file to scan, rather than
feeding it data to scan
- ClamAV itself is hanging on to an open handle on the file, at the time
that Exim tries to unlink it - which results in NFS having to do the
rename dance

The former would be for either a Unix-socket connection spec for av_scanner,
or a "local" option on a TCP-socket. If so, you could try with a (non-local)
TCP - even if it's 127.0.0.1

Hi Jeremy,
in our configuration we Clam is working on a separate machine, so we are
connecting over tcp:

av_scanner = clamd:sv-baldmz 3310

so there is no possibility that Clam is opening the handle on the file.
