A long, long time ago I had amavis working with exim3. I've
now forgotten the details and I doubt that I kept any of the
configuration files. So I'll endorse the above remarks!
If you're committed to amavis, you might care to look at:
http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/
for what seems to be a far more developed version.
Another popular mail scanner can be found at:

You'll find many enthusiastic exim4 + exiscan users on this list.
The *really* nice feature of exiscan is that you can reject stuff

aware of other email scanners that have this capability.
