Hi

We use db.za.clamav.net as one of our database mirrors for freshclam and 
there has been no changes to the configuration of Freshclam.  We have 
been receiving the following error when attempting to download from it 
for the past week:

We have 2 DatabaseMirrors specified and the second one is working correctly:

DatabaseMirror db.za.clamav.net
DatabaseMirror db.de.clamav.net


I noticed a post mentioning similar issues on 24 August:

...and a blog announcment on 23 August:

Please let me know if you need more information.

Thank you in advance.
