I'm not sure what your configuration says, but I would guess that the
underlying cause for the defer is that the sender's domain (hockmans.co.uk)
has DNS problems:
* the top priority MX for that domain incorrectly points to a CNAME
* the lowest priority MX for that domain says "webstar.filepharm.co.uk",
which does not resolve (server failure - see
http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=filepharm.co.uk)
Does that help at all? If not, you might need to show us some of your
configuration - for example, your whole 'rcpt' ACL.
