Why that transaction failed is a curiosity, but not what you're after. You should search the courier logs of that day for the failed message id, 000000000027586D.0000000050318EDD.00006F31. Courier must have logged that it received the message from the MUA, on Sun, 19 Aug 2012 20:11:57. As Sam said, the network error must have happened then. The truncated 450 error was logged nine seconds later, at 20:12:06.
