It's a DNS issue. qpopper is just doing a reverse lookup, nothing magic, so if it fails from nslookup, too, then you know it's not qpopper. If the reverse-DNS works from another machine, then there's some reason the DNS data can't get from there to your qpopper server. You could ask on the ISC bind-users mailing list. Be sure to provide real addresses and names so experts can check your DNS. They skip messages with obfuscated data.
