Your internal server is dropping connections.

It's still your internal server's problem -- it's not obeying
RFC821/2821. Since qmail doesn't know the message was successfully
queued by your internal server (it didn't respond 2xx to the DATA
phase), it _has_ to re-attempt delivery.
Fix the internal server. If you want proof it's broken, capture one of
these messages being transferred with tcpdump.
