Take a look in /usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/Log.pm. Right at the bottom
you will find a "sub LogText". Replace that whole sub with this:

sub LogText {
   my($logmessage, $level) = @_;

   return unless $LogType eq 'syslog';

   foreach(split /\n/,$logmessage) {
     s/%/%%/g;
     Sys::Syslog::syslog($level, $_);
   }
}

1;
