What does this command (executed as your mailscanner "run as user") have 
to report?
spamassassin -x --lint -D config

Also from your pastebin.. some observations.

#[7598] dbg: config: score set 1 chosen.         188.57324

Score sets 0-3 exist..
Set 0 is for the ruleset with bayes and network tests disabled.
Set 1 is for the ruleset with network tests enabled.
Set 2 is for the ruleset with bayes enabled.
Set 3 is for the ruleset with network tests and bayes enabled.

You lint detects a score set of '1', but it still tries to search for 
bayes. If you do not want to use bayes then set 'use_bayes 0' in your 
mailscanner.cf

If you intend on using bayes, then you'll need to refer to the SA OR MS 
wiki OR possibly simply ask on this list.
