Those hosts are at cloudmark.com, which gets used by
spamassassin (or some part of it).  Port 2703 is Razor2
<http://www.sng.ecs.soton.ac.uk/cgi-bin/faq?_recurse=1&file=16> - so
that fits as well.

Unless you're not using spamassassin or razor2 or something similar,
don't think there's anything to worry about...  Do the times of the
probes match up with times when mail is received?
