Read the error message carefully. This is NOT an issue with the HELO name.

Postfix is failing to resolve 65.100.117.244 to a name. That may be transient or it may be a configuration issue, such as attempting to run smtpd inside a chroot jail that lacks the needed devices, an overly restrictive packet filter (or external firewall,) or an extra security layer (SELinux, AppArmor, etc.) that prevents DNS resolution.

Resolution is fine from here:

$ dig +nocmd +nocomments +nostats +noquestion -x 65.100.117.244
244.117.100.65.in-addr.arpa. 86266 IN   PTR     mail.slfcu.org.

That name even resolves back properly to the IP:

$ dig +nocmd +nocomments +nostats +noquestion mail.slfcu.org
mail.slfcu.org.         6149    IN      A       65.100.117.244
