amavisd-new doesn't do this, even if it wanted to.
The mail contents gets read from a temporary file directly
to a SMTP session back to MTA, no modifications to a mail body there.

tcpdump is the ultimate proof

You messages did not go through amavisd, or you stripped out headers.

Start troubleshooting (tcpdump) a session from SquirrelMail.

If you fixed the problem meanwhile and re-tried, it is possible
the previous verification result was still valid in cache
(if they use a regular Postfix verification feature).
Try again - and monitor your MTA log for their probe and
your reply to it.
