I could work around this problem by adding a '--chuid Debian-exim'
parameter to the start-stop-daemon call in /etc/init.d/mailscanner -

start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --nicelevel $run_nice --chuid Debian-exim 
--exec $DAEMON --name $NAME -- $DAEMON_ARGS \
    || return 2


I could also find more people having the same problem:

The problem seems to be, that the mailscanner version used in karmic and lucid 
is not compatible with Perl 5.10
