Ok, not the freshest MailScanner version one has seen... Consider an
update. it is fairly easy and well-documented in the MAQ how to do
that on RPM-based systems like yours
(http://wiki.mailscanner.info/doku.php?id=maq:index#upgrade_rpm).

What does the 41 bytes of /etc/mail/spamassassin/mailscanner.cf say?
Looks almost like a symlink-turned-normal-file, just from the size of
it.
Try moving that mailscanner.cf out of the way and doing
ln -s /etc/MailScanner/spam.assassin.prefs.conf
/etc/mail/spamassassin/mailscanner.cf
... just to make sure it is a link. Hm, come to think of it, I don't
rightly remember at which version MailScanner switched to assuming
that symlink to be there... If you update to the latest stable version
(which I think you should), you _will_ need it.
