try resending the _same_ message from the same machine. if the AV
quarantines it, then you get the guilty. now, the AV config may have
changed (or it may have dynamic rules....) so you are not guaranteed to
reproduce the problem, but it's worth to try. and as I said in my
previous post, check the AV quarantine. of course, this all assumes you
are (were) running an AV on the client box.
