This is the approach I would like to attempt.

Sorry. No witty comments come to mind.

Where I am at the moment.  Upgraded OS to Leap 15.2.  That was easy.  I even
took a snapshot of the VM before proceeding.  I can be taught.

Postfix and SA are still functional. clamav and clamav-milter seem to be runing
but are not tied in to mail flow yet, due to my own lack of knowledge.  

For whatever reasons, I am finding it difficult to tease out how to correctly
insert clamav-milter into postfix.  Seems all my internet searches so far
turn up stuff that is suggestive, yet, not confidence inspiring.  

I am not certain, for example, where to place the "call" to clamav-milter.  I can
see examples of syntax in the Postfix docs on milters, but . . . 

At this stage I would rather ask than hack away.
