Kate,

You should put "Spool Directory = /" and "MailScanner Work Directory = 
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming" but you also need to modify /etc/fstab 
to add:
none                    /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming tmpfs   
defaults,noatime        0 0

Once this is done, stop MailScanner, "mount 
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming" and start MailScanner.

You really need to specify mount points for these graphs. And since 
mailscanner-mrtg runs from /etc/cron.d/mailscanner-mrtg.crond you don't 
have to restart anything for it to react to your changes.
