What does this contain? Have you been using MailWatch? MailScanner 
itself doesn't use any mysql database.

Make sure you keep the new MailScanner.conf from the new system, rename 
it to /etc/MailScaner/MailScanner.conf.rpmnew and then copy in the old 
one, then upgrade_MailScaner_conf.
Do likewise for /etc/MailScanner/reports/*/languages.conf files too.
