This has previously been suggested a number of times against the clamav package, as bug #250335 and the three others merged with it. For this reason, /usr/share/doc/clamav-base/README.Debian.gz contains details of how to integrate Clamav with sendmail, exim4 and Amavis. IMHO, adding users to groups created by other packages isn't something unrelated packages should be doing - even less so when one the vast majority of new sarge and sid systems will be running exim4 but may never be running clamav (or may have clamav added later, since exim4 will be installed by the installer).
