MailScanner on freebsd

Did you install the port?
#pkg_info -Lx MailScanner | grep rc.d
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mailscanner.sh.sample
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mta.sh.sample

If you have installed mailscanner from ports you should have the above 
files which you may need to rename to *.sh
If you for some reason do not want to use the port, you may still take a 
look at those files here:
#ls /usr/ports/mail/mailscanner/files/
or through the ports-cgi at freebsd.org
