Well we finally tracked down the problem!!!!
Part of the delay was, I was not going to submit a fake ID to run this
down, but was just working toward the -01 version which I submitted
yesterday.....

I doubt that I-D transaction messages conform to any common abuse
template. As Russ notes, there's no attachment, but I do not, offhand,
know any any interesting vocabulary or text pattern in these messages
that ought to be problematic. Even the included URL ought not to be
all that interesting to filtering code.
Consequently, it could be interesting to track down why your corporate
filters are flagging these.
Ho boy, this was interesting:

Bob,
I think I found the problem. For this particular message, something in
the message is triggering the adult spam rule and the message is being
discarded. See "action-discard" in the filter log query below.
I will safe list this address
and I have added a rule to classify anything with the string "I-D
Submitter Authentication for draft" to NOT be classified as spam.
Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of the entire message, only the
header information. Please submit your request (again, and I'm sorry)
and I'll follow it though again.

Once we cleared this up, the system sent me another auth email this morning that got properly caught in the spamblocker that I was able to release and safelist.
My hunch it is all that NASTY stuff in the auth key that set the filters off! :)
