As others have pointed out, all your DNS records are NOT correct,
specifically the hostname which your IP resolves to does NOT in turn
resolve to that hostname.
This is most commonly:
o An error (as in your case)
o An attempt to "look like" some other company (e.g., someone
setting up their reverse DNS so that their spam-source resolves as
"somehost.yahoo.com").
