See the following RFCs:
http://rfc.sunsite.dk/rfc/rfc2034.html
http://rfc.sunsite.dk/rfc/rfc1893.html
1893 says:
4.X.X Persistent Transient Failure
A persistent transient failure is one in which the message as
sent is valid, but some temporary event prevents the successful
sending of the message. Sending in the future may be
successful.
X.4.X Network and Routing Status
The networking or routing codes report status about the
delivery system itself. These system components include any
necessary infrastructure such as directory and routing
services. Network issues are assumed to be under the
control of the destination or intermediate system
administrator.
X.4.2 Bad connection
The outbound connection was established, but was otherwise
unable to complete the message transaction, either because
of time-out, or inadequate connection quality. This is
useful only as a persistent transient error.
So, I guess the answer is persistent dodgy connection :-)
Cheers.
Baz.
