Checking for the presence of a PTR record, and looking for valid reverse
DNS are not the same things.

The reverse_host_lookup functions in Exim will fail if the
forward-check also fails.

If you only want to check for the presence of a PTR record, and do not
care about the forward-check, I haven't been able to find any way to do it
without using dnsdb.
