Yes. it works really well. If you use it through milter you can use the build in clamav-milter or the third party smtp-vilter milter connector by Marc Balmer. I prefer the smtp-vilter as it seems more stable and also have more features. For example to also connect to spamassassin spamd and Symantec antivirus through ICAP and more. If you use smtp-vilter you do not have to rip up the mail twice with spam checking and then virus scanning. It's all done when the mail is "open".
Enjoy clamav. I love it.
