I do something similar. When I installed Mailscanner a couple of weeks ago I 
was in a bit of a quandry about whether to allow it to do the spamassassin 
stuff too, but decided in the end to continue with my current procmail setup 
because it allows the flexibility of selectively processing the incoming 
mail. I let mailscanner deal entirely with virus scanning. I notice you use 
the List-Id as your matching expression - I didn't know you could do that. It 
looks slightly more elegant than  my stanza:

# I don't want spamassassin processing stuff to the
# spamassassin mailing  list.
