PTR Records



I ran some Reverse DNS Lookups for our domain and have a problem that I'm
not sure how to solve. We have a filter that receives all incoming email (so
the MX record is set to the filter's IP), but each Exchange 2000 server
sends its own outgoing email. We do have PTR records for all of the Exchange
servers, but they are not listed first, so the domains that check PTR
records are refusing email from us because our PTR records don't point back
to the original IP. If one of you kind souls has a few minutes to help with
this, please send me an email and I will provide the IPs that have the
problem! Thanks!
