I've contacted my provider, Bellsouth, requesting they change the record.
Is the test to check the domain of the PTR record against a list of known ISPs?

policy of rejecting subscriber access networks based on PTR hostname. highly recommended
Do I need to ask bellsouth to change the ptr to my server's name?
specifically, the PTR record for your server's IP.

Use the following web site 24 hours after you have your PTR entry changed: www.dnsreport.com
Here is an example link of the output:
