Postfix has always written files to the queue. That's how it works. What
it never supported is 'expecting others to read and write to its queue
files'. For that postfix has transport agents to which mail is
delivered. Mailscanner does exactly what postfix doesn't expect. Or, to
put it in words of http://www.postfix.org/addon.html:
mailscanner system, works with Postfix and other MTAs. WARNING: This
software uses unsupported methods to manipulate Postfix queue files
directly. This will result in corruption or loss of mail. The
mailscanner authors have sofar refused to discuss a proper access API or
protocol.
