Not in this situation, as you didn't tell everything last time ;-)
file /usr/share/man/man3/Math::BigInt.3pm.gz from install of perl-Math-BigInt-1.89-1.el5.rf conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.8-15.el5_2.1
You got the same messages when you installed MailScanner. You should have woken up *then* ;-)
This tells me rpmforge has a newer version, but isn't yum-priorities suppose to keep rpmforge from updating it?
Correct. But there is no such file in CentOS. You installed the complete MailScanner package which installs lots of "not so good" perl packages which either are not necessary (including this one) or can be fetched from rpmforge. Remove that BigInt package and all shoulkd be well. And do not install the complete MailScanner package when you do your next upgrade, install only the mailscanner*.rpm.
