The cause of the problem may be in pidfile ... in your previous mail you 
compared the contents of /var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.pid.fixed file 
with the running process:

--8<--
# cat /var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.pid.fixed
12781
# ps -ef | grep clamav-milter
clamilt  12781     1  0 16:19 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/clamav-milter 
--quiet --external --dont-wait --force-scan --dont-log-clean 
--server=localhost --pidfile=/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.pid 
local:/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.sock
--8<--

however, monit was configured to check the pid which is stored in 
/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.pid (containg the incompatible format):

--8<--
Process Name          = clamav-milter
 Group                = milter
 Pid file             = /var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.pid
 ...
--8<--
