Well, these certainly prove that your inbound mail is going via MailScanner:

So, we're back to wondering why your MS configuration is causing inbound emails 
to be scanned but not stored...

You've already said that you have:

Spam Actions = store header "X-Spam-Status: Yes"
High Scoring Spam Actions = store header "X-Spam-Status: Oh Yes"
Non Spam Actions = store deliver header "X-Spam-Status: No"

The only bit that puzzles me about this (and hopefully someone else can 
comment if I'm completely wrong about this) is the positioning of the "X-Spam-
Status" header in your received email - it comes *above* the Received header 
showing the mail passing from MailScanner to Zimbra, whereas I would have 
expected to see it amongst the "X-WaltonCountyITDept-MailScanner..." headers.

But anyway, it's clear that MS is scanning the mail - maybe you could post the 
remainder of your mailscanner.conf (omit comments and blank lines) so we can 
see if there's something odd there?
