Not sure if this is normal behavior I just haven't come across before or
something new but it seemed like it might be interesting to some folks
here.

A Barracuda device we are sending to is dropping the connection after
end of DATA so we are retrying the message.  This happens a few times
before the message finally does get through.  The interesting part is
that each time the connection drops after DATA,  we are seeing a click
and an open (downloading of images)  from that message.

I've seen AV software do clicks/opens before but it usually accepts the
message first!

This doesn't seem to be universal across all Barracuda destinations we
send to so I'm guessing it is some individual setting.

Exim with clamav (for example) configured in some ways is also able to do that. However, if it drops the connection, it should not accept it afterwards, the behavior should be repeatable. That said, maybe it takes too much time scanning the message, and then drops the connection due to a timeout somewhere.
