Not really. What would you like to see documented better?

Robert Penz wrote that one... If I understand the documentation
correctly, it uses the libraries, and does not require clamd. I'm not
sure how much memory you'll save though. I'm going to guess that the
memory currently used by clamd will be used in approximately the same
fashion by the clamav module.

More or less. You can use the whitelist modules to exclude specific
users or addresses from scanning. You can't do conditional scanning,
though... You couldn't, for instance, have a module that scanned only
outgoing messages and a second module that scanned only incoming mail,
unless you built those checks directly in to your modules.

List clamav in the config file before whitelist_auth. All mail for
which filtering is enabled will be scanned by clamav. If a message was
received with SMTP AUTH, it won't be subject to any filters that are
listed after whitelist_auth.

Yes.

Not currently, but you could write one. I'd base it on whitelist_auth,
and load after clamav (so that all mail is scanned), but before the
other whitelist modules. If a message was sent by an authenticated
user, then add all recipients to a DB and return ''. Otherwise, if the
message was sent by someone in the DB, return '250' (thus, preventing
greylisting). Else, return ''.
