There are also a number of places that will host just your rDNS records.
You'll still need to contact your IP address owner and have them
delegate the rDNS to the 3rd party, tho.

If you are moving your domain name registrar for reverse lookup support,
then you are wasting your money. 
The reverse lookup is set by the owner of the IP address. It is
basically a lookup on the IP to see if it matches what your server is
announcing itself as. 
 
Many of the first line support people at ISPs here the words "DNS" and
tell you to go to your domain name registrar, because they don't
understand the difference between conventional (forward) DNS which
matches name to an IP address, and reverse DNS, which matches IP address
to the name.

Ah okay.. That explains it. I am in the process of moving our domain
from Network Solutions to Register.com because NS refuses to support
reverse MX lookup (PTR). Sigh.

I recently had the same problem and was able to fix it by having my ISP
create a PTR for my mail server.

You may contact your ISP and make sure that the reverse lookup record
exists and is correct.

A couple of issues:

 

Some emails are not going out because "The remote server did not respond
to a connection attempt", and "Unable to bind the destination server in
DNS". How do I fix this problem? Thanks

Andrew
