Ok, looking at the source … 

/etc/cron.daily/MailScanner
/etc/cron.hourly/MailScanner

Look for /etc/default/MailScanner

There is no cron jobs named update_* in 4.86.1 - Old files? 
As a side note, there was not in the last version either. Did you create them?


Should we:

- Remove those if found?
- Remove and replace?
