Well, why don't you ask the support guys from Trend Micro? I believe,
they can help you better than the readers here. Couldn't you run
InterScan VirusWall SMTP as your external SMTP server and qmail as your
internal SMTP server (InterScan pipes after the virus scanning back to
sendmail, in your case the sendmail-wrapper of qmail)? IIRC Trend Micro
describes some different setups in their manual.
Alternative Open source solutions are either scan4virus
(http://www.geocities.com/jhaar/scan4virus/) or AMaViS (dev.amavis.org
or better
http://sourceforge.net/projects/amavis). For a general overview, you may
also have a look at http://lavp.sourceforge.net/
