What you included above is all normal for every message. Following those 
you should see

... MailScanner[<pid>]: New Batch: Scanning 1 messages, ...

followed by more `MailScanner[<pid>]:` messages. What are these?

There are reasons why the milter itself will reject a message. but then 
you will see `milter triggers REJECT` and not `milter triggers DISCARD`.
