Not relevant, because 'port list' shows the only *available* version, 
not the version you have installed. To show what version(s) you have 
installed 'port installed' and to see the one which is active, 'port 
active'.  If you're installing a port for the first time, neither of 
those will show anything.

However, that isn't in question because your log shows:

:debug:main clamav 0.100.2_0 exists in the ports tree
:debug:main clamav 0.100.2_0  is the latest installed
:debug:main clamav 0.100.2_0  is active

The message about clamav being too old is coming from running the 
Makefile.PL script of the Mail::ClamAV module in the MacPorts 
'configure' phase, which sets up the actual Makefile for the build 
phase, where the actually fatal error occurs. Makefile.PL uses 
'clamav-config --version' to get the version of the current ClamAV 
installation, so there is something wrong with what that command is 
returning. If this is a machine that has a history (i.e. pre-Mojave) it 
is possible that you have another antique installation of ClamAV 
somewhere and a PATH environment variable that puts the old 
clamav-config ahead of the MacPorts version. Try this:

which -a clamav-config

That should return '/opt/local/bin/clamav-config' and nothing else.
