*decloaks*

We (Loughborough University) use ClamAV on our inbound and outbound mail 
servers, in front of and after Office 365 mailboxes. It sits in the middle of a 
fairly complex set of moving parts - another AV product, DNS blacklists, file 
hash checks, local 'reputation', several anti-spam tools and a load of custom 
local config (we're an Exim shop so have almost infinite flexibility).

We have a number of 'unofficial' databases loaded - some Sanesecurity ones as 
others have mentioned - and some custom local stuff that doesn't fit into the 
other bits.

Picking a random recent day, we had 135000 rejections, 6500 of which were from 
ClamAV. By comparison, we accepted & delivered 25000 messages to 66000 
recipients (non-unique).

I know we're not unique in this regard, and I'm thankful ClamAV exists for many 
reasons, not least its extensibility!

Actually, from what we understand, ClamAV is mostly used to scan email.
