File permissions have nothing to do with this.

The Postfix timed_connect() function failed, because one of the
FreeBSD system calls connect(), poll() or getsockopt() failed with
an EACCES error.
FreeBSD connect() fails with EACCES when:
[EACCES] An attempt is made to connect to a broadcast address
(obtained through the INADDR_BROADCAST constant or the
INADDR_NONE return value) through a socket that does
not provide broadcast functionality.
[EACCES] Search permission is denied for a component of the
path prefix.
[EACCES] Write access to the named socket is denied.
The second one is not applicable for TCP.
As for the third one, maybe it is a packet filter error.
FreeBSD poll() and getsockopt() do not report EACCES errors,
according to the manpage.
