Connection timed out issue with Postfix

cv flag

I wrote a Golang program that sends reports based on a ticker. Those reports are sent by mail using Postfix on a CentOS 7 machine. My problem is that the mail is sent successfully to users inside the same machine, but not to outside email addresses.

I tried this command:

traceroute -n -T -p 25 10.145.3.144

as seen here: Postfix: "Connection timed out" on all outbound email , and I get the same outcome:

1  * * *
2  * * *
3  * * *
4  * * *
5  * * *
6  * * *
7  * * *
8  * * *
9  * * *
10  * * *
11  * * *
12  * * *
13  * * *
14  * * *
15  * * *
16  * * *
17  * * *
18  * * *
19  * * *
20  * * *
21  * * *
22  * * *
23  * * *
24  * * *
25  * * *
26  * * *
27  * * *
28  * * *
29  * * *
30  * * *

which means, SYN packets are not getting SYN ACK packets back, but I believe the solution here might be different.

I also tried the ip route command, with the following outcome:

default via 10.87.161.17 dev eth0

10.87.161.16/29 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 10.87.161.18

After that, I tried changing the nameserver to 8.8.8.8(Google's) on the /etc/resolv.conf file but to no avail too as I am on a private company's network.

What can I change so that emails are sent correctly?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
