Postfix suddenly stopped working

[Petr Janda <elekktretterr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use Postfix on my mailserver, and all of sudden(no change in configs, 
no software updates done) it stopped working.

Thunderbird says that it is Connected to the server for about 2 minutes 
and then connection failed. Output of tcpdump shows this:

porncatalog# tcpdump -vvv port 25

It seems that postfix fails to respond for some very strange reason. Can 
someone give me some clues? I tried restarting server, makes no 
difference. It only happens with Postfix, all my other services work 
correctly. Running DF 1.6-RELEASE.
