I think you'll find the blame lies with clamd. It has a history of
hanging on certain messages.

Well, when a message has hung, the qmail-queue.log debug file would tell
you where it was hanging, but you'd have to go through it line by line,
looking to see where a message started to be  processed, (and if I'm
right) got to being passed to clamdscan. Then you'd probably see other
new messages being processed and ending up being passed to the offender,
and more new messages, etc, etc. At that stage you can diagnose that as
the offender never appears to exit - that'd be why the timeout-killer
kicks in later.

I'm guessing it's clamd
