>> http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/ptr.ch?ip=12.20.208.99 shows that AT&T is delegating the >> reverse DNS for 12.20.208.99 to dns.skywaves.net, using the hostname >> 99.96/28.208.20.12.in-addr.arpa. But dns.skywaves.net doesn't have a PTR record for >> 99.96/28.208.20.12.in-addr.arpa.
So I changed it to
99.96/28 IN PTR mail.crofuttsmith.com
And now it works.
Can you explain why?
Because the zone is 208.20.12.in-addr.arpa, the "99.96/28" that you added expands to "99.96/28.208.20.12.in-addr.arpa" -- so you now have a PTR record for 99.96/28.208.20.12.in-addr.arpa -- which is what you needed.
