That's great, why are you unable to
a)  read the instructions that come with MailScanner?
b)  search the archives?

a) reading the instructions would tell you this:

In MailScanner.conf around line 1235, there's these 4 lines:

# Set the location of the SpamAssassin user_prefs file. If you want to
# stop SpamAssassin doing all the RBL checks again, then you can add
# "skip_rbl_checks = 1" to this prefs file.
SpamAssassin Prefs File = %etc-dir%/spam.assassin.prefs.conf

in spam.assassin.prefs.conf on about line 141:

# By default, the Bayesian engine is used. This is a real CPU hog and uses
# a lot of system resources to work.
# On a small overloaded system, you might need to disable it.
# use_bayes 0

b) searching the archive for disable bayes would have returned this
email on the first page of results:

Stop being so lazy.
