We experienced this same problem. In our case, it was due to a timeout 
condition on the sending smtp server - clamav was taking so long to scan the 
mails that the sender timed out and retried.

I think that in this case we should detect that the sender dropped the 
connection and refuse to deliver the message, but nobody seems to agree.

In our case, finding a way to make clamav scan faster helped out. I turned 
softupdates on for my queue drive and that helped a lot. Aside from that, the 
only other advice I received was to use something besides qmail.
