Neither. If you only want to do virus scanning, use the clamav-milter included with clamav. Mailscanner is "not recommended" for use with postfix. clamsmtp is more complicated than using the bundled clamav-milter. clamav-milter integrates easily with postfix, is reliable, and has fewer third-party dependencies compared to the other choices. Also consider using the add-on Sanesecurity anti-spam signatures for clamav. I've found them to be quite useful with very low false positives. http://www.sanesecurity.com/ -- Noel Jones
