I might be wrong, but I believe the following;
The mail server on the other end gave the error "450 Client host
rejected: cannot find your hostname" to your mail server, so it
appears however that server does lookups to determine hostname cannot
resolve your ip to host/domain name.
Sure as you prooved you can look this up fine, but the problem is with
the other end doing the same thing.
Anyone agree with this...
And to further follow up, it appears I too can look up your ip to your
hostname, but it don't work the opposite way..
# nslookup 202.14.131.60
Name: PC0.wagr.wa.gov.au
Address: 202.14.131.60
# nslookup PC0.wagr.wa.gov.au
... and this fails... might be a cause of the problem..
