Can't this an issue that either the hostname of the sending machine does
not match the reverse lookup of the ipaddress that sent it  and not that
the ipaddress (static or other wise) of the internet connection does not
have a correct reverse entry?

Chucks servers at moongroup.com were the first ones to bite me on this
well over a year ago.  I ended up routing everything through my isp
(SBC) because IIUC my mailserver at the office on a machine called
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and masqueraded behind the static ip address
of our firewall would fail to resolve.  Same thing on my laptop named
bretsony.

Just a thought.
