Are you sure this is actually preventing email delivery? Perhaps
other log entries show successful mail deliveries.

If you're seeing various connection timeouts, perhaps there's a
path MTU or similar network problem.

The timeouts are unlikely to have been caused by the performance
of your server, either before or after the upgrade.

You should capture traffic (tcpdump) from one or more of these
servers, and see if you can make sense of it with wireshark or
similar. Look for retransmissions, etc.

    # By name or address as applicable.
    #
    tcpdump -w /file/name -s 0 host example.com and port 25
    tcpdump -w /file/name -s 0 host 192.0.2.1 and port 25


Ctrl-C or "kill -INT" when enough traffic has been captured.
