[Rspamd-Users] Rspamd clamav integration - Am I overlooking something?

Face-palm. My confusion was a consequence of a few combined factors:
1. I had wrongly assumed that the log message "/no category symbols
defined for clamav/" required me to define "category symbols". I
still don't know what "category symbols" actually are - but, it
seems, it doesn't matter if none are defined.
2. I had wrongly assumed that having added "log_clean = true;" for
rspamd-clamav integration that _any_ clean message would (at least)
have some log entry to confirm this. In reality, only messages with
attachments seem to get a log entry relating to clamav. I had been
using trivial emails for testing - and these generated no logged
evidence about clamav having been configured... so I'd assumed its
integration wasn't working.
One mystery solved. There was no issue with the Unix socket or
clamav-daemon - and the rspamd configuration I had did work - just not
exactly as I had expected it would. I still wonder about the purpose of
'category symbols' - and whether they would ever be relevant in the
context of clamav...
