Mailscanner has one big disadvantage when used with postfix:  It
accesses postfix queue files directly.  According to Wietse Venema, the
postfix author, postfix queues are considered a non-published internal
interface which is subject to change.  In an email to postfix-users from
Sep. 16. 2003 he says:

"MAILSCANNER MANIPULATES POSTFIX MAIL USING UNSUPPORTED METHODS.

 THEREFORE DO NOT USE MAILSCANNER."

(Wietse's capitalisation, not mine).
