Re: Reverse DNS

OK, seems my ISP changed the names of their secondary servers on me. I
updated those in my zone file for the reverse domain.

I still have basically the same question/problem: A lookup for a PTR
record for my mail server fails. I'm having trouble sending some
emails as a result.

The reverse zone is there. The PTR records are there. Why can't a
reverse lookup find them? How do I fix this in QuickDNS?
