What are your settings for ms_cron_check and ms_cron_msg_alert in
/etc/MailScanner/defaults? Mine are both set to 1 and I don't see this.

The only two HOURLY jobs potentially run are /usr/sbin/ms-check and
/usr/sbin/ms-msg-alert controlled by the ms_cron_check and
ms_cron_msg_alert settings respectively. On my installation, these
noramlly produce no output. You could try running them manually to see
which one is producing output.
