I ordered the InputMailFilters in sendmail.mc and it works on my system. I 
have three of them in there. Greylist, clamav, spamassasen.

INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`greylist',`S=local:/var/milter-greylist/milter-greylist.sock')
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_CONNECT', `j, {if_addr}')
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_HELO', `{verify}, {cert_subject}')
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_ENVFROM', `i, {auth_authen}')
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_ENVRCPT', `{greylist}')
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clmilter',`S=local:/var/clamav/clmilter.socket, F=, 
T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
dnl define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clmilter')
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=local:/var/run/spamass.sock, F=, 
T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')dnl
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_CONNECT',`b, j, _, {daemon_name}, {if_name}, 
{if_addr}')dnl

Note the "dnl define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clmilter')" I had to take that 
out of the because it was messing up the order and other things in the 
sendmail.cf output. Let "mc" handle it.
