 From your post:

amavis    6683  0.0 20.9 1016312 814072 ?      Ssl  15:14   0:00 /usr/sbin/clamd -c /etc/clamd.d/amavisd.conf

That is the very clamd started on your system.

See 'systemctl status clamd at amavisd' (iirc). Or clamd at amavis. I stopped using amavisd a while ago so not 100% sure any more. :)

If you're using Amavisd, then amavisd supplies its own config file to clamd - what you can see in the ps output you posted.

Good luck,
Reio
