A "proper" RDNS entry is a hostname.
Some ISPs insert "dummy" RDNS entries.... like
a-b-c-d.provider.location.com. Actually, "some" should probably be
"most" ISPs.
Because these are "generic" PTR records, they are treated as "no PTR"
values by anti-SPAM settings.
The correct fix is therefore not white-listing - it is setting a proper
PTR record -- usually SOMETHING that resolves in the other direction
back to that same IP address.
E.g.:
mail.qmailtoaster.com. IN A 1.2.3.4
4.3.2.1-inaddr.arpa. IN PTR mail.qmailtoaster.com.

Hi All,
When my client try to send a mail to me, he received the error message,
as follows,
*MYMAILID.MYDOMAIN.in*
*mail.MYDOMAIN.in #554 Refused. Your reverse DNS entry contains your IP
address and a country code. ##***
Will it solved when I put clients domain name in whitelist senders.

You genenerally don't want to whitelist senders. They're very easy to
forge.
You can either comment out the "reject-ip-in-cc-rdns" rule, or perhaps
whitelist the rdns name. Personally, I would whitelist the rdns name.
