You dont need to add signatures with clamav...thats what crontab is for!
I have my mailserver scanning all inbound and outbound messages for spam 
and viruses, and I don't allow outbound spam/viruses, and filter all 
incoming spam into a spam folder for each user, and delete mail with 
viruses and banned filenames....so I think if you were looking for a 
good way to go, clam antivirus and spamassassin, running with postfix, 
qmail, or gasp possibly sendmail if you really wanted to go that route....

Cheers
