If you are not sure where to find this, look in Iadmin under System >>
System Settings.  This will be the domain in the top box.  Mine, for example
is below.

So, our server name is OSPWeb02 and it is on 64.7.207.173 I have asked that
an "A" record is set up pointing OSPWeb02.ltcconnection.com to 64.7.202.173
so we can have  FQDN
 
mail.ltcconnection.com reverses to 64.7.202.212.. is this going to solve the
problem? I feel like I am in over my head here and don't know what direction
to go in.
 
90% of our domains have their mail record set up to point to 64.7.202.222
because that is the IP their domain is set to. Should they all point to
something different?

Technically they don't all need to match, BUT your IPd OHN does need to have
reverse DNS.  There is nothing stating that for all forwards, it has to have
a matching reverse.  HOWEVER, your Main IP'd domain does need to have a
reverse that matches the OHN.

I have been going back and forth on this and can't seem to get the answers
my boss wants. So I am hoping you guys can help me.
 
We have a few hundred email accounts using our mail server as virtual mail
accounts. Of course, when a reverse dns is done, the lookup does not match
the domain name it was sent from and messages are being rejected. We have
been told that we would have to get a different IP address for each domain,
which isn't feasable.
 
How do other hosting companies handle this issue? I can't imagine we are the
only ones. Any help, suggestions would be appreciated.
