I would recommend NOT running those RPMs, unless you do heavy
modification of the configuration.  Dag has it set to spam the spoofed
senders (WHY IS THIS EVEN A VALID OPTION IN CLAMAV?).

Um, does he?  By my reading of
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/clamav/clamav.spec
...
%{__cat} <<EOF >clamav-milter.sysconfig
### Simple config file for clamav-milter, you should

he has it set to absorb viruses (don't reject, don't deliver, don't bounce)

Rather convenient of you to snip THE NEXT LINE:
        -obl local:%{_localstatedir}/clamav/clmilter.socket

Note that the -b is short for --bounce. If you look up --bounce in man clamav-milter, it says "Send a spam to the spoofed sender. This will help advertize ClamAV. Note: this may cause you to be referred to as an `idiot' by clueful mailserver administrators worldwide."
