This is the case what made me think the subject in the first place: If mail
servers MX name (mail.goldblatt.net) which it announces when contacting
another mailserver is different than the one that a PTR record for it's IP
address 208.190.130.82 resolves (wndrgrl.goldblatt.net) I thought it might
lead to trouble.

But you are absolutely sure that it won't? If so, great, no problemo then.
