The "please run connect() first" message comes from low down in the
Python library and is really a message to SMTPDirect. It is a result
in this case of SMTPDirect trying to continue to talk on the
connection that timed out.
Is the MTA in the same machine (localhost) as Mailman? If so, we can
rule out a flakey network connection. If not, that may be the issue.
Otherwise, the issue seems to be that Postfix is taking way too long to
handle Mailman's SMTP transactions.

I don't know.

The peer is the MTA. The error comes about because SMTPDirect is trying
to close the connection by sending a QUIT and is not receiving a 221
or any other response; the connection is closed by the MTA before any
reply is received.
