MailScanner works with Postfix but there are special settings in the
MailScanner.conf file for it.  You should really subscribe to the
MailScanner list and ask your questions there.  I use sendmail and have 
never tried Postfix.

MailScanner is intended to run on a mail server to protect those systems
pulling mail from it.  If you're only using a single linux box to
send/receive all your mail then I doubt using MailScanner to screen for
virus' is of any value???  All the virus' are Microsoft based.
