Hi all,

Bigpond mail servers appear to be having some issues today; may wish to
route traffic to only 203.36.172.106 until this rectifies itself.

If someone with the correct contact could give them a poke too, I'm sure
they'd appreciate it.

extmail.bigpond.com.	30	IN	A	203.36.172.106
extmail.bigpond.com.	30	IN	A	203.36.137.234

Connected to 203.36.172.106.

The issue is also present with real sender address instead of empty sender.
