you need reverse records for any legal ips used by that server.

Subject: [IMail Forum] reverse DNS and virtual domains


I have two IP's setup for our mail server, and for both IP's I have
several domains setup under each...

192.168.0.1  mail.domain1.com (official hostname)
  mail.domain10.com
  mail.domain11.com

192.168.0.2 mail.domain2.com (official hostname)
  mail.domain12.com
  mail.domain13.com

I want to get my server setup correctly and want to setup reverse DNS
for these correctly. Reading the Ipswitch docs:
--------
3. You will need a PTR (reverse-lookup) record that resolves the IP
address of your IMail PC to the Official Hostname of your IMail
domain. (Many large ISPs will drop your connection if they cannot
match your IMail hostname with a PTR record for your IP address.)
---------

This sounds like I just need to add two PTR records for each official
hostname vs. a PTR record for all of my domains? Is that correct?

Thanks much,
Jim
