I need help with this one, if I try to send an email to anyone at
@bigpond.net.au I get these 2 errors below but if I telnet to their
MX hosts port 25 directly then a test message will go through okay
so it seems to only be a problem when I send via my local courier-mta.

 from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

It's highly unlike that it's "anyone"@bigpond.net.au, but rather these specific recipients. Looking earlier in your mail log you should see a single delivery failure to these addresses, which starts the backscatter suppression timer.

This is backscatter suppression. You can read up on it in INSTALL and the courier man page.
