Is the folowing an real error?

Aug  9 14:22:55 mail02 postfix/smtpd[1969]: SSL_accept error from
mail-ew0-f224.google.com[209.85.219.224]: -1
Aug  9 14:22:55 mail02 postfix/smtpd[1855]: connect from
bzq-79-182-42-58.red.bezeqint.net[79.182.42.58]
Aug  9 14:22:55 mail02 postfix/smtpd[1969]: lost connection after CONNECT
from mail-ew0-f224.google.com[209.85.219.224]

Because when i try to send a mail to this server from my other working mail
server, different setup says:

-Queue ID- --Size-- ----Arrival Time---- -Sender/Recipient-------
B66C41CDE0     1353 Sun Aug  9 11:36:38  x at x.x
(conversation with mail02.x.x[x.x.x.x] timed out while receiving the initial
server greeting)
