Are you maybe using relay_by_mx? If so then you have a canonical DNS
problem.

The way sendmail works out how to relay by MX is it looks at all the
ips on all it's interfaces.

In your case this would be
202.128.97.2

it then does a reverse lookup which gives

ns1.isa.net.au

So if it sees ns1.isa.net.au in an mx record it will relay.

so you probably need to change 202.128.97.2 to point to mx2.isa.net.au

or use ns1.isa.net.au as your MX record.
