"Stuck" means that the first couple of messages you see in these errors have
been waiting several days to be sent.

Note that I am, and have been, sending to port 587 instead of 25 because my
ISP blocks all outbound port 25 traffic.  I thought I should mention that
as your 'nc' output above is to port 25.

My IPA is 67.131.57.133.  Thanks!
