The PTR check is a lot older than checking for SPF, DKIM, and DMARC. It's probably a 15+ year old MTA rule and you're getting blocked before Earthlink would even have the chance to check for authentication via DKIM or SPF. (And I'm not even sure if they do, personally.) So yes, DKIM/SPF matter, elsewhere, but that's not really germane to this Earthlink issue.
