You are looking at the wrong side.
http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/lookup.ch?name=arcsmtp5.arcdmz.re.redcross.org
&type=A
Since there is no A record, there is no way to see if there is a PTR record
for the corresponding IP address.

I have a user that's getting an NDR when sending to a user @ada.state.oh.us.
Although the NDR appears that it's doing some sort of reverse DNS lookup, I
don't think this is the case. When I put in ada.state.oh.us in dnsstuff.com
it comes back with an error that their mx record is referencing a cname
rather than an A record. I did some research which suggests that when this
is any mail sent to this domain is rejected. When I connect to their mail
server on port 25 and issue a helo it comes back with syntax error. When I
issue ehlo it does not appear to do anything. Wondering if this is something
on their end or ours. (All our outbound mail goes out to mailsweeper
smarthosts (2)
Received:571 - MAIL REFUSED - Reverse DNS failed; cannot resolve the
(arcsmtp5.arcdmz.re.redcross.org) domain in the HELO command.
