Re: PTR question (Probably RFC related)

[Scott Gifford]

If that server is going to be connecting to other mail servers and
sending them mail, common practice requires a PTR record, and an A or
CNAME record for that name that refers to the same IP address.  Many
mail servers will refuse to accept your mail otherwise.
