ClamAV is usually used as a gateway mail scanner. Freshclam is installed by
default. Check /usr/local/bin/ for it. The clamav website has good docs on
it, too. I have it on my email server and freshclam runs from rc.local on
bootup with the following command:

/usr/local/bin/freshclam -d --checks=50
--daemon-notify="/usr/local/etc/clamd.conf"
--on-update-execute="/home/karlp/bin/freshclam.sh update"
--on-error-execute="/home/karlp/bin/freshclam.sh failed"
--on-outdated-execute="/home/karlp/bin/freshclam.sh outdated" -u root

That's all on one line, btw.

HTH.
