mail stuck in postfix.in

there are 2 instances running; inbound based on /etc/postfix.in and
outbound based on /etc/postfix.

postfix.in/main.cf:queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix.in

postfix/main.cf:queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix

is mailscanner expect to pick up the mail from /var/spool/postfix.in and
delivery it to the outbound instance? I don't think this is happening
because I don't see any mailscanner activity in maillog after the initial
sartup.
