The server hosting the Postfix website does not use any type of GeoIP
based blocking. Could Roskomnadzor be involved, perhaps?
And why would Roskomnadzor block access to Postfix website? There's
nothing
political on it.
I think it's just a routing misconfiguration at some major ISP. It
might be
hepful that the OP does a traceroute to www.postfix.org and tells where
it
stops.

"In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once

When a website is blocked by the Russian government, trying to open it
usually redirects to a special "website blocked" page served by the
local ISP (with the exception of HTTPS sites, but this is not the case
here). But instead of that, the connection just times out - more often
than not, this indicates a problem somewhere further towards the remote
side.
I can only do the traceroute from my local machine, since I don't have
access to any remote machines where this problem manifests. It stops
returning meaningful results right after the IP that seems to belong to
my ISP, which is a bit strange - this is most certainly not a local
problem, considering the availability test results
(https://ping-admin.com/free_test/result/16443944516w2j65r1y4j0kca10wdw3q.html)
and also that at least one other user here (Kirill Bychkov) has
confirmed it too.
