Based on the limited info you gave -- maybe...

What MTA? What instructions did you follow to set it up?
Did you double check those instructions to make sure you didn't miss a step?

What did you install from? Where did you get all the related files like
spamassassin and Clamav?

Also which OS, and some system details like number of processors and total ram
would also help.
