try doing this:

cp $(which msmtpq) $(which msmtpq).bak; sed 's/debian\.org/8.8.8.8/g' -i $(which msmtpq)

It looks to me like you're connection to debian.org is somehow blocked,
in which case msmtpq will print this error message. Above line will
replace all debian.org references to 8.8.8.8 (google dns - fairly
stable host)
