It doesn't.
I thought so. You should have found that out yourself and told here in your first posting!
I'm under the impression that a socket cannot be manually created,
but has to be created by the application, so I simply don't know what to do about this.
Nothing. So far I haven't seen a reason to change it from the default. There is *NO* instruction in that short tutorial that tells you to do this. So, simply leave it where it was and tell amavisd where to find that socket! I remember you had the exact same problem some weeks ago, when you also changed the clamd socket for some obscure reason and it stopped working. Didn't you learn from that? You can't just change those paths for fun. The program has to be able to write to that new path, of course!
