i think what you need is an AV on your mail server not on squid, try out
Amavis on your mail server. Squid just does http requests on behalf of
everything behind it unless you run a mail server on your squid server
which is not a good idea.

IMO the request for an inline-scanning http proxy is completely
valid, but AFAIK (correct me, please!) squid has no hooks for
inline virus scanning.
