How many people use an Amavis setup to send messages through SA and

setup that has been running Postfix, SA, Cyrus-IMAP, and Sieve for
awhile (running Debian), but wanted to add ClamAV to the mix (not sure
why I didn't from the start, but oh well).
Needless to say, most methods I am finding are using Amavis. My SA
setup is working great, so I am not sure if I want to switch it up and
have Amavis control everything as far as SA and ClamAV is concerned.
This is primarily because I am not familiar with it, but also because my
first attempt in using it failed earlier today. I have a relayhost
setup that uses TLS, and it was causing problems with Amavis trying to
route mail back to Postfix without TLS (or that is what I think the
problem was).
Just curious as to how many people use Amavis vs simply using SA and/or
ClamAV.

amavisd-new is very popular with postfix users - widely used and well
supported by the author on the amavis-users mail list. But note well:
there are numerous other products with similar names. AFAIK
amavisd-new is the only amavis* that is currently maintained and I
would suggest not using any other variant.
See the amavisd-new web site for a detailed How-to on integrating with
postfix. If you have trouble, ask on the amavis-users list - they're
a helpful bunch.
It's also possible to use amavisd-new only for clamav and keep your
existing SA setup if it's working well for you.
There are other choices for integrating clamav into your system,
notably clamsmtp.
