In situations where I was only doing anti-virus and not anti-spam, I've used 
clamsmtp for years with no issues.  It hasn't had a release in awhile, but 
only because it does what it was designed to do and the author decided not to 
try to make it into a swiss army knife.  I know in Debian/Ubuntu clamav-milter 
doesn't have a lot of users and does not get heavily tested.  I don't know 
generally though and have never used it.

In situation where you are doing both A/V and A/S, then I would integrate 
clamav with postfix using amavisd-new.
