Because it takes effort. The "end user" of the IP address has to get the "owner" of the IP address to either create the PTR record in their tables or to delegate the requisite in-addr.arpa range to them. Some providers understand the need and all it takes is a phone call or e-mail to the appropriate party. Others either have no clue or insulate their knowledgeable people until you jump thru hoops to get to them. Either way it could take persistent effort to get it done and until the pain of not having PTR records exceeds the pain of getting them setup properly many admins just ignore the issue. ___________________________________________________________________ Virus Scanned and Filtered by http://www.FamHost.com E-Mail System.
