You have one of these two options set on your SMTP Transport:

    hosts_try_dane
    hosts_require_dane


Each of those takes a host-list, so might currently look like:

    hosts_try_dane = *


You can change that to look like:

    hosts_try_dane = !*.gov.hk : *


If the host-list references external files, take a look at those.
