Here's how I'd do it.

Mail arrives for "company.com", and you've set up a domain called
company.local which you receive mail for on the mailscanner box. On
mailertable you set "company.com smtp:[the-m-sexchangeboxip] so that mail
for that company gets sent directly to your m-sexchange box.

On "nonspam actions" set a ruleset like this:

to: jdoe at company.com  deliver forward jdoe at company.local
FromOrTo: default deliver forward someboxtogeteverythingelse at company.local

That way no viruses or spam will get to your m-sexchange box.
