nc -l should have returned an error if clamd was actually listening on 
that port.

TCP communication is working, but based on this log line from your 
earlier post:

Jan 30 19:12:39 localhost clamd[22830]: TCP: No tcp AF_INET/AF_INET6 
SOCK_STREAM socket received from systemd.

you have an issue with how clamd is started from systemd - basically, 
systemd needs to be told to set up a TCP socket as well as (instead of? 
don't know if it's possible to use both) the local UNIX socket.
