I believe you need to setup mutt to use smtp.uq.edu.au as your mail relay
host. Either that or configure your box's sendmail/qmail/exim(one true mailer)
to use smtp.uq.edu.au as a smart relay host. To do that in sendmail, look for
the line starting DS and change it to DSsmtp.uq.edu.au

Have I missed anything people?
