Would I want to enable milter with clamav?
Depending on your needs, maybe. The clamav-milter lets sendmail reject mail containing viruses immediately, rather than having to receive them and then filter them later.
You should also investigate greylisting, which has very little downside and is the most effective antispam measure I've seen yet.
Here's something I wrote on that a while back. It needs to be updated, but it should give an idea:

The default delay introduced by milter-greylist is 30 minutes. From what I've seen in log files, this could probably be reduced to even five minutes and still be effective. Most spamware and viruses don't retry even once.
