I can't say for freenet.de, and I doubt somebody will explain his
antispam tactics in details, but generally using 4xx like this is very
common.

1. Graylist filter checks if you re-send the same message, because many
spammers don't even try.
2. It may be result of ratelimiting, message above ratelimit may get 4xx
3. It may be attempt to detect the suspicious mass-mailing. Some logic
in antispam detects new template or some rule marks message as
suspicious and delays it to understand if it was a single message or is
a part of mass-mailing campaign. A single message later may be allowed
to pass.
4. "Same" (according to e.g. ML or some unreliable heuristics) messages
were marked as spam by users and are awaiting for additional analysis or
manual rules/actions.
5. There are some temp failures e.g. DNS timeouts on name resolutions
for MX / PTR / SPF / etc and/or reputation data is insufficient

and lot more. Just do the things as you expected to and implement
reasonable retry strategy.
