A suitable .qmail-default in the ~alias directory would fix that (it
catches everything that hasn't allready been matched). The file
could contain code for pushing the mails through the anti-virus software.
To redirect the mail afterwards, you could make it forward it to a domain
that has spesific routing (in smtproutes).
