I'm only using their signatures right now.=20

Why, RTFM of course! In the install docs, I found this :
   MailScanner Installation Guide - McAfee

                             MailScanner - McAfee

   The current version of the code assumes that McAfee will be installed
   into /usr/local/mcafee or /opt/mcafee. If you install it elsewhere
   (e.g. /usr/local/uvscan) then you will need to edit the paths at the
   top of the mcafee/autoupdate and mcafee/mcafeewrapper scripts, and
   change the location of mcafeewrapper in the mailscanner.conf file.

   Look out where you install the DAT files for mcafee, as the shipped
   mcafeewrapper script assumes they are installed into
   /usr/local/mcafee/dat.

   Other than that, all the code to support McAfee is now in the same
   version of the code as the Sophos support, so all you should need to
   do is ensure that the mailscanner.conf settings "Virus Scanner" and
   "Sweep" are set appropriately.
