That won't be a problem.
There are a small number of mail servers (AOL supposedly among them) that
check to see if a reverse DNS entry exists (it *is* technically required,
but a large percentage of mail servers don't have them). But, I'm not
aware of any mail servers that compare the results of the reverse DNS
lookup with anything within the E-mail itself or SMTP envelope.
