amavisd-new can be configured to listen on multiple ports to serve
other postfix instances.  See the amavisd-new docs and release notes
for details -- look for $inet_socket_port, $forward_method, and
policy banks.  For further help configuring amavisd-new, see the
amavis-users mail list.

Clamav should also be able to be shared, but may need additional
configuratoin depending on how it plugs in to postfix.  If you're
using clamav inside amavisd-new, no changes to clamav are needed.
