A lot of larger companies are cracking down on mailservers with missing
reverse DNS entries. AOL's secret filtering (as opposed to their publicly
acknowledged filtering) has been proven to use the missing reverse DNS
entries in its weighting system, and Yahoo recently announced that use the
reverse DNS entry as part of their spam control. Mindspring may be doing
the same.
