[Bug 430418] [NEW] clamav-milter socket permissions wrong

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: clamav

According to /etc/default/clamav-milter on Jaunty:

## SOCKET_RWGROUP
# by default, the socket created by the milter has permissions
# clamav:clamav:755. SOCKET_RWGROUP changes the group and changes the
# permissions to 775 to give read-write access to that group.

This doesn't make sense:

* A socket shouldn't ever have execute permissions.
* If the idea is that only a particular user/group should have access to the socket, no group/world permissions should be set at all.

So, I think the modes should be 600 or 660 respectively.
