I am not the maintainer, but I use clamd.

I used to have extras clamav and clamav-db, but finished installing dag's 
because the lack of clamd in extras. I prefer a daemon scanning.

I my case, I had to do some extra work, and what really bothers me is that I 
have to do it every time I upgrade (put clamd to work with amavisd user, and 
have the /var/run/clamd directory have user amavis). This is what the 
packages docs say, but the don't do it automatically.

All this with dag's clamd.

Does it really not work? When I tried it, it worked OK. Maybe you have trouble 
integrating it with your MTA.
