You are correct. Somehow the damn gremlins must have crept in twice as
when I copied and pasted from your email, saved the script and then ran
it, I got that ClamAv was up to date.

I did change a small part of the script...changed "could'nt" to "could not".

It is not necessary to post the script as all seems OK, other than
possibly adding an email notification to advise of update success.

**Start of script**
#!/bin/sh
# update of clam-av signatures

EMAIL=postmaster@xxxxxxxxxxx
tempfile=`mktemp`

freshclam > $tempfile
statusclam=$?
#echo "test clam" > $tempfile
#statusclam=0

case "$statusclam" in

   0 )  echo "Clamav has gotten new sigatures!"

        ;;
   1 )   echo "Clamav is up-to-date"
        ;;
  255)  cat $tempfile | mail -s "Clamav could not update: $statusclam"
$EMAIL #2008-02-18 was coluld'nt
        ;;
esac

rm $tempfile
**End of script**

Just waiting for a 'Success' email to tell me that all is up to date to
offset the FAILURE emails I have been getting since yesterday up until
14h15 today. Looking at the script though, it doesn't look like I'm
gonna get one :)

Anyway, now the script is sorted, time to tackle the next bit of your
email Sandy that I printed regarding amavisd.
