Hej,
I simply got postfix to work in a non-MailScanner environment first,
and then simply copied the whole /etc/postfix sheebang to 
/etc/postfix.in and made some minor changes.
Mainly to turn on defered, and to turn of SMTP listening.

I also reversed the names, since if you use gotmail (to fetch hotmails) 
the mailscanner will not process the mails since they end up in the 
postfix folder (which is the post-mailscanner folder). For gotmail to 
work you need to have postfix as the incoming folder, and 
postfix.outgoing as the post-mailscanner

Good luck
