See above on the socket of clamd.

Okay, so you can simply copy and paste the lines between the two sections.

Just make sure the socket in the amavisd-new config is at the same place where 
clamd has its socket configured in /etc/clamd.conf. See above.

Yes, that's your job to script. (^-^)

Something like:

-------------------------------------------
#!/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'nt update: $statusclam" $EMAIL
        ;;
esac

rm $tempfile

-------------------------------------------

Feel free to expand the example.
