I would suggest setting up a separate name with matching forward and
reverse DNS for each IP address. The existing name can be an alias
pointing at both addresses. For example have a look at the setup for
ppsw.cam.ac.uk which is our central mail relay. (The name is a relic from
the days of the JANET coloured book protocols and a grivously hacked fork
of MMDF.)

Forties: Northwest 3 or 4, veering north 4 or 5, increasing 6 later in east.
Slight, becoming moderate in east. Mainly fair. Moderate or good, occasionally
poor.
