This is fine - exactly the settings I am using.

Someone else asked if clamd is really running.  Have you edited the
clamd conf file?  The first item in the file needs to commented out to
activate the config:

# Comment or remove the line below.
#Example

It may be useful to turn on LogVerbose in clamd.conf too - it will log
everything it scans, not just infected streams.  Once you are happy it
is working, you can disable LogVerbose to save your /var.

Your config is what is in the documentation and the default Exim
configure file anyway.
