And also any company that poorly chooses a legit domain name can also get blocked, no DSL (or cable, dialup, etc) required. For example, all those places out there selling holes in the ground that you pour money into (pools).
Our isp charges a "programming fee" for each such rDNS entry and doesn't want to do them at all for non-web servers. So, a backup mail server here could have the same problems (although technically it should not, we are not on DSL (yet) or a dynamic range ... but our alternate IP's don't have our names in the rDNS and look pretty generic). > From: R.
