Start with this: https://www.howtoforge.com/community/threads/please-read-before-posting.58408/ Have you installed amavis? Is it running? Test that with Code: systemctl status amavis What about clamav, have you installed it?

I know from previous threads that 1 GB memory is not enough for running mail server with clamav. That host probably has out of memory errors logged to /var/log/syslog. You can create swap, 2 or 4 GB to allow virtual memory big enough to fit the clamav processes. If you can create disk partition of that size assign that as swap. Or if you just today installed this system, it may be easier to install it again but this time partition the disk so there is a partition for swap.
The reason for the slow mail delivery is probably the failed clamav scanner. according to the error, the clamav signature database is corrupted. you should consider to delete the file /var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd and then get a fresh database using freshclam command.
Thanks, I have created a 4GB swap, run freshclam and get Code: root@mail:~# freshclam Mon Sep 23 07:52:12 2019 -> ClamAV update process started at Mon Sep 23 07:52:12 2019 Mon Sep 23 07:52:12 2019 -> main.cvd is up to date (version: 58, sigs: 4566249, f-level: 60, builder: sigmgr) Mon Sep 23 07:52:12 2019 -> Downloading daily.cvd [100%] Mon Sep 23 07:52:52 2019 -> daily.cvd updated (version: 25580, sigs: 1775120, f-level: 63, builder: raynman) Mon Sep 23 07:52:52 2019 -> *Can't query daily.25580.105.1.0.6810DA54.ping.clamav.net Mon Sep 23 07:52:52 2019 -> bytecode.cvd is up to date (version: 331, sigs: 94, f-level: 63, builder: anvilleg) Mon Sep 23 07:52:58 2019 -> Database updated (6341463 signatures) from db.local.clamav.net (IP: 104.16.218.84) Mon Sep 23 07:52:58 2019 -> ^Clamd was NOT notified: Can't connect to clamd through /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl: No such file or directory If I run systemctl status clamav-daemon Code: root@mail:~# systemctl status clamav-daemon ● clamav-daemon.service - Clam AntiVirus userspace daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.service; enabled; vendor pr Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/clamav-daemon.service.d └─extend.conf Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2019-09-22 11:35:54 UTC; 20h ago Docs: man:clamd(8) man:clamd.conf(5) https://www.clamav.net/documents/ Process: 383 ExecStartPre=/bin/mkdir /run/clamav (code=exited, status=0/SUCCES Process: 410 ExecStartPre=/bin/chown clamav /run/clamav (code=exited, status=0 Process: 419 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/clamd --foreground=true (code=exited, status= Main PID: 419 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) I have run sudo service clamav-freshclam start & sudo /etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam start Still not running?
Restarted the server, clamav-daemon running and email delivered within a few seconds. Thank you guys, been using vesta for years now, already decided to move to ISPconfig
