What error are you getting? My guess would be that the wildcard is
being expanded by the host before passing it to the guest. But that's
just a guess :-)
I would try
/usr/sbin/vserver prometheus exec sh -c '/bin/rm -f /var/spool/qmailscan/quarantine/new/*'
to force the wildcard expansion to take place in the guest.
However, why not just use the host to remove the files?
/bin/rm -f /vservers/prometheus/var/spool/qmailscan/quarantine/new/*
(or am I missing something basic to vservers that'll cause problems!!)
