pcom

We have been told by AOL that our email to it
is blocked because we do not have a reverse record
defined.

We defined it - but it seems incorrectly ?

When we check with dnsstuff.com it says:
"No PTR record defined".

Can someone who is a DNS export please help
with this ?

-> Thank you so very much !

pcom is just an example of what we are using. The format of the records are exactly like that though...the numbers and names have been changed to protect the innocent... :-)

We co-locate our server and so you are saying that we have to approach our ISP even though we are running our own DNS server for the domains we host...but I did notice that the main IP addr has a reverse entry that points back to the ISP - of course they own the whole block...
