I believe you just put the av tools in a list in your config file and they run in order like: Virus Scanners = clamav mcafee 
 
<UB>
Exact 

I am planning on running clam first so I can see which ones aren't being picked up by Mcafee to send them to clamav so they can get updated.  
 
<UB>
The order doesn't matter.  All messages are scanned by all anti-virus.

I am installing ClamAV to work with MacAfee, but how do I tell Mailscanner to use it also? And which should I run first?

The current daily dat files from McAfee ( http://download.nai.com/products/mcafee-avert/daily_dats/DAILYDAT.TAR ) seem to work OK.
 
Best on what platform?
 
The best is a combination of scanners from different vendors.  This is one of the things I love about MailScanner - you can run as many as you like.
 
I'd recommend ClamAV plus a commercial scanner.

All,
 
With recent issues with McAfee Antivirus, was wondering what AV tool you think is the best and why.  
 
Thanks
