I did an install a few weeks back.
I installed clamd from rpmforge, as suggested from folks on mailscanner 
list.

You can install mailscanner wiht this repo.
http://yum.vanderkooij.org/el5/

Don't install mailscanner on Centos via the install.sh script.
It will overwrite some perl packages.
Trust me I did it.
As suggested to me by Kai.
With rpmforge enabled install these packages via yum.

yum install perl-Convert-BinHex perl-Convert-TNEF perl-Convert-BinHex 
perl-Convert-TNEF perl-DBD-SQLite perl-Filesys-Df perl-IO-stringy perl-
MIME-tools perl-Net-CIDR perl-OLE-Storage_Lite perl-Pod-Escapes perl-Pod-
Simple perl-Test-Pod perl-Time-HiRes

then install mailscanner*.rpm
