The second thing isn't needed. My "scanning harness" (like the sound of that
:-) requeues the message after scanning - so it remains as a normal message.
i.e.
QMAIL
SMTP --> qmail-queue --> decision on local or remote delivery --> etc
QMAIL+SCAN4VIRUS
SMTP --> scan4virus (checks for virus) --> if clean --> qmail-queue ...
--> if virus quarantine + notify
