Well I have amavisd and clamav installed and running but they aren't
filtering the viruses I pick up when I do a clamdscan.

That depends on whether you want to callout to clamav directly or via
amavisd, 
which will then call SA amd clamav if needed.  But yes, if you are using

sendmail as the MTA, it would be a good idea to enable milter so you can
change 
your mind and still have it work.

If you use amavisd, viral and spammy messages get placed in
/var/quarantine (or 
some such path).
