You do have to set %org-name% in MailScanner.conf because it is used
later in the file unless you override everything.

But, things like "Incoming Queue Dir" and "Outgoing Queue Dir" and
"Incoming Work Dir" are better set in a file in /etc/MailScanner/conf.d/
where they will override the MailScanner.conf settings, but even so, it
should work.

Yes, all my changed settings (really just %org-name% and %report-dir%)
are in both MailScanner.conf.original and MailScanner.new.

Did you run install.sh as root? If not, maybe there was some permission
issue that prevented it from reading your old MailScanner.conf.
