For the sake of completeness I'll just send a short update to this thread. 

We debugged the behaviour using Gilles debug instance and it looks like Apple 
Mail is generating a single-line References header that doesn't comply to RFC 
2822, making it too large in some cases.

It should not be >78 characters, if it is it should be split into multiple 
lines. OpenSMTPD will refuse after >998. In my example the line was 1078 
characters.

I've filed a bug report with Apple (developer portal), id 21813193 if anyone 
wants to reference it or something.

As a workaround one can use forward instead of reply and copy the recipients 
from the original thread. Then Apple Mail will simply drop the References 
header.

Thanks a lot to Gilles for the quick debug

Eric
