The described behavior suggests smtpd_timeout is set for 4s, but that

Or the poster has a front-end on his mail server, and that is why I
asked for a complete log of the 'lifecycle' of the mail, so we can
spot if he is getting the timeout from some other piece of software.

I do not have a front end on my mailserver. All incoming mail comes
directly into postfix. I am running a vpostmaster install which is not
a front end, but simply provides policy and transport agents that
interface to postfix. Postfix is the standard install that comes with
CentOS, though vpostmaster and I have changed the config files.
Here are the 3 lines that get logged for a timeout.
