In your MailScanner.conf, what are the values of
MTA
Run As User
Run As Group
Incoming Queue Dir
Outgoing Queue Dir
Incoming Work Dir
Quarantine Dir
PID file

For the relevant "Run As User", please supply the line from the /etc/passwd
file.
For the relevant "Run As User", please do "ls -ld" of the home directory.
For each of the "Dir" variables above, please do an "ls -ld" of each one.

Sounds like its a permissions problem.
