My guess is either that the module got mangled during installation, or 
it's not where Mailscanner thinks it is.

Did you try doing perl -wc as it suggested? You'd need to find where the 
file describing MailScanner::CustomConfig::InitSQLWhitelist is 
(MailScanner/CustomConfig/InitSQLWhitelist.pm somewhere in your 
installation, at a guess) and then

     perl -wc [filename]

It'll do a syntax check for you and make sure all's OK.

I think it's more likely that the file just isn't where Mailscanner 
thinks it should be. Not having using Mailscanner, I can't proffer you 
any advice for how to remedy that problem.
