Yeah, we have seen this almost regularly with new installations of Clam 
as well as upgrades.   The symptoms are almost always just as you describe.

If you issue a manual restart via CLI then that should address the 
problem for you.   Once restarted, everything appears good again until 
the next update.  Which could suggest a little troubleshooting may need 
to be done on the installer.

Try a manual restart of the Clam milter (as well as greylist milter, if 
you're using it) and your email ought to go through.
