Trying 68.146.225.144...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out

Well it looks like you're firewalling connections to that IP to me. I tried
from 3 different backbones and all of the connections timeout at:

16 rd1so-pos10-0.cg.shawcable.net (66.163.71.130) 125.558 ms 101.898 ms 85.362 ms
17 cr1no.cg.shawcable.net (64.59.130.138) 105.408 ms 104.288 ms 120.505 ms
18 * * *

I suggest you check your firewall config or talk to your ISP. This isn't an
exim problem.
