sure, I've seen just timeouts at just about every step of the SMTP dialog

none of those commands are required to deliver mail.

add -v to end of  smtp line in master.cf temporarily, to get a full 
trace of the failed dialog, including all SMTP command bytes send/received.

and look at our smtp timeout values:

postconf | egrep -i "smtp_.*timeout"
