I am trying to determine whether it is a routing issue or my IP or domain have been blacklisted.

Running  traceroute the problem appears to be at ex9k1.dc6.hel1.hetzner.com (213.239.252.198) which is in Germany.

When I  run whois on 65.108.3.114 I find that it belongs to Hetzner Online GmbH and is transferred to RIPE Network Coordination Centre (RIPE).

When I run whois on postfix.org, I get:

   whois postfix.org
   connect: Connection refused

So it seems my IP or domain have been blacklisted. Why?

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.
