Thanks!

Had to run rpm -e --noscripts to get rid of the mailscanner-4.85.2-2

The installer script complained about  package 
perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.027-1.noarch

already present on the system which was newer than what the installer 
wanted to install  perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.020-1.el5

I nuked the newer version after which the other required RPMs did finish 
installation, now the installation ended without errors.

Will modify the config scripts and let you know how the result

Thanks for super fast reply :)
