Hi!
Like the topic says mailscanner or spamassassin doesnt scan or check my
incoming or outgoing emails.
I have Mailscanner spamassassin and clamav installed, and my configuration
for postfix / mailscanner and some output from my /var/log/mail are
attached below.

/etc/postfix/main.cf

not scanned at all, i also dont get the "Scanned by MailScanner watermark
in my sent Emails".

allready the latest database version bla bla bla)
