I already reported this problem as bug #651424 but so far got ignored. I read about the migration from Digest:SHA1 to Digest:SHA but looks like the mailscanner package haven't been upgraded yet. Looking at the mailscanner website it seems that mailscanner is already able to work with both packages, so probably it's just a matter of repackaging it. 

Thanks in advance.
