that doesn't seem to be a general non-accessibility of the server:

Maybe some routing issues of your upstream provider?

Sorry for the interruption of postfix technical discussions.

I cannot reach the www.postfix.org server. I have to use a mirror if I  want to 
get to the documentation.

I've found using host and dig that www.postfix.org is  a cname for 
postfix-mirror.horus-it.com (65.108.3.114). That mirror is not listed in the 
the status of postfix-web mirrors at www.porcupine.org/mirmon/postfix-web.html.

The closest mirror to me, ghostarchive.org, has been down for 274.9 days. I 
have been using mirror.reverse.net to get to the documentation.

Is there a DNS issue pointing to a bad mirror, or is my IP or domain being 
blocked?

My IP is 47.201.27.231 and the domain is grifent.com. My router pulls a DHCP IP 
from Frontier.com but the IP has remained the same for a long time since my 
router renews the lease or requests the last IP when rebooting.
