I can get a response from mail.qanet.gm
telnet mail.qanet.gm 25
Trying 196.46.232.3...
Connected to mail.qanet.gm.
Escape character is '^]'.

but not from newgainde.qanet.gm, which just times out.
I also get an interesting result from pinging it:
PING newgainde.qanet.gm (196.46.232.17) 56(84) bytes of data.

The alternating hostnames don't feel like a happy start...
What I am interested in is what is in front of mail.qanet.gm - it looks
to me like a fair candidate for a SMTP-proxying security appliance.
Problems have certainly been known to be introduced by things like this,
so that would be my first guess. If they're both behind such a device,
it may be that it has some internal concurrent connection limit that
causes additional attempts to time out.
Can you avoid or relax the validation/interference on the proxy
(assuming it exists!)?
