Default FreeBSD 6.2 + qmail = problem sending email to freebsd.org

Hi!

I have experienced a problem while trying to send an email to the FreeBSD mailing lists - in general I have a problem when sending email to freebsd.org.

The system is FreeBSD 6.2 with qmail-1.03_6 - qmail was installed and configured long ago and since then I haven't upgraded anything on the system, because I didn't want to mess something up since portupgrade is not my favorite one

Anyway - I can send and receive emails from anyone and to anyone, except freebsd.org. When I send a mail to freebsd.org the mail stays in the queue forever and even though flushing it (qmailctl flush) won't help. Strange thing...

Here's what I've found in the log - this is from today (/var/log/qmail/qmail-smtpd/current)
Code:
@4000000048df3da335c06a04 tcpserver: status: 0/30
@4000000048df40aa19688e04 tcpserver: status: 1/30

@4000000048df414525fa213c tcpserver: status: 0/30
In the log 10.10.0.5 is the address of my mail server, 10.10.0.6 - a mail client.

Code:
qmailctl queue
messages in queue: 1
messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 0
28 Sep 2008 11:30:29 GMT  #565659  2435  <daemon@unix-heaven.org>
        remote  freebsd-ports@freebsd.org
Yesterday when I tried to send email to freebsd.org I've found this in the log (which doesn't appear now and I think it's for good ):
Code:
@4000000048de7dd02510af84 status: local 0/10 remote 1/120
@4000000048de7dd13acbf6bc delivery 2: deferral: 69.147.83.52_does_not_like_recipient./Remote_host_said:_450_4.7.1_<freebsd-ports@freebsd.org>:_Recipient_address_rejected:_Se rvice_is_unavailable/Giving_up_on_69.147.83.52./
Btw, I don't have a DNS server on neither on the mail server or the gateway.

Any suggestions on why the mail stays in the queue only when sending email to freebsd.org?

Thanks!
