Blocked message for no apparent reason

There might be a hint in the email headers/body, in 
/mailscanner/MailScanner/quarantine/20120418/q3IKBtOJ020557 ?

It's possible you found a bug, but it's probably something that 
MailScanner is configured to do. Look for quarantine settings and 
"store" directives in your configuration files and rules.
