This means that Yahoo is unable to determine to which IP address they
should forward/deliver mail that is intended for addresses @bigpond.com.

I checked and there are in fact entries (of the A and MX type) for
bigpond.com:
bigpond.com. 3600 MX 10 extmail.bigpond.com.
extmail.bigpond.com. 3600 A 144.135.25.8
The MX DNS entry tells us that mail for bigpond.com is handled by
extmail.bigpond.com and this server can be reached under 144.135.25.8.
This seems to be a problem on yahoo's side, there's not very much you can
do. Hopefully they might get the DNS resolving in a better shape
eventually. In the meantime you might try sending mail to
username@[144.135.25.8] but I'm not sure if this works.
Regards,
Markus
