"Connection refused" is not a timing error. You are
contacting a remote system at IP 28.144.{165 or 16}.5, and it
is refusing connections from you.
Common causes of this may include:
- remote system mail service is stopped.
- remote mail system isn't listening on port 25
- remote system has blocked you with a firewall.

Is postfix contacting the right IP address? If not, maybe you
have a problem with your MX lookups or your transport table.

You may be able to diagnose this somewhat by trying to telnet
to port 25 on the remote system from some different source
IP's, but likely the fix will need to be made on the other end.
