That sounds like two different problems... are u sure that 
spamd works fine when you've removed the socket in /tmp?

AFAIK clamd will not remove stale socket files (is that 
what /tmp/clamd is called) especially if it's stoped 
ungracefully.

I ended up modifying my clamd startup scripts to manually 
remove the socket before attempting to start the daemon.

i.e a 
[ -e /tmp/clamd.sock ] && rm /tmp/clamd.sock 
or something similar.

In anycase, I still don't think that has anything to do with  
spamd but YMMV.
