This is pretty much a retorical question, although I would like to know the extent of the problem and how quickly it's gonna be sorted.
My problem has already been described in a previous post, i.e. clamd fails after a reboot.
The cause apparently is that /run and therefore /var/run has at some point been moved onto tmpfs which means that it doesn't survive a reboot.
The effect of this is that any folders (such as /var/run/clamd.* that gets created when RPMs are installed don't survive, and the first time the server is rebooted things get broken.
Googling the problem has shown at least a couple of other packages now experiencing the same problem. including from memory pcp and MongoDB.
(BTW, I'm still receiving emails from that too good to be true young lady)

Solution for packages not ready for el7 is to use tmpfiles.d : http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/tmpfiles.d.html
For the other issue (spam), as said in a previous email it's not coming through the centos mail server[s] but an abuse report has be sent to the cloud provider hosting the VMs used to send those spam messages directly to the list users.
