From a quick test, at least half of connections get immediately
rejected, which probably isn't helping:

adam@kotick:$ telnet prcmail.p-r-c.com 25
Trying 76.14.210.251...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
adam@kotick:$ telnet prcmail.p-r-c.com 25
Trying 76.14.210.251...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
adam@kotick:$ telnet prcmail.p-r-c.com 25
Trying 76.14.210.251...
Connected to prcmail.p-r-c.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 barracuda.ccbox.com ESMTP (f191c7be2ab0eba84da576b7c6e04258)
quit
221 barracuda.ccbox.com Goodbye adsl.funky-badger.org, closing connection
Connection closed by foreign host.

Testing using swaks also gave refusals for the first two attempts.

Senders will tend to back off, and retry at increasingly long
intervals, until they get a successful connection.
