In that case maybe you've noy got the two exim instances running. check
you've started both Exim processes.

Also the Outgoing queue in MailScanner.conf is wrong, this should the queue
dir that the 'outgoing' exim process is reading.

The main architecture of MailScanner is that it sits between two MTA queues
and moves 'good' email from one queue to another. So you need to make sure
yo've got the incoming queue that just holds onto the email for MaiLScanner
to grab and the outgoing queue that MailScanner will drop scanned email
into for onward delivery
