I wrote out my mailserver setup in Ansible and I was able to deploy 
mailscanner without it asking for prompts.
Here's the task that run the ms-configure command for me:

- name: Install - Run ms-configure
   command: |
     /usr/sbin/ms-configure --MTA=postfix --installEPEL=N
     --installClamav=Y --configClamav=Y --installTNEF=Y
     --installUnrar=Y --installCPAN=Y --installDf=Y
     --ignoreDeps=N --SELPermissive=N --ramdiskSize=0

Just run "ms-configure --help" to check the options that are available, 
you should be able to work with that.
