I bet this is greylisting on infradead.org. Greylisting will put
unknown IPs into a database, and /temporarily/ reject the mail, asking
for the remote mail server to queue it. Once $GREYLIST_TIME has passed,
infradead.org will accept the email. This successfully filters out a
lot of spammers, and broken SMTP servers that have broken retransmit
[rules].
You probably need to fix the mail server delivering the mails to
properly retransmit...
