I had:

ClamAddress: /var/run/clamav/clamd

in my config file. I changed the clamd to clamd.sock but it did not
make a difference.

The clamd.pin, clamd.sock=3D and freshclam.pid files are in
the /var/run/clamav directory.

This is becoming really annoying. Aparently, clamdsmtp will not create
its own clamsmtpd.pid file.
