You can disable connection caching, globally or for specific sites. Or you can let the connection be dropped and make a new one. Nothing wrong with a dropped connection from time to time... Postfix will try the next MX host. Postfix does not have a numerical connection re-use limit. Rather, the limit is a time-limit, because this exhibits (much) better behaviour when delivering to a mixture of fast and slow servers. -- Viktor.
