Wrong way around. That'll tell you why you might be refusing connections
for someone else's IP.
TO answer the original poster's question: If they're refusing your
connection (as opposed to giving you a SMTP error on connection -- try to
deliver a message in verbose mode) then one of two things is happening:
either the MTA on that server is no longer listening on port 25 (ie it
crashed) or they are TCP wrappering connections from your server (try
connecting to port 25 on that server from someplace else to verify).
