Hi, I was wondering if anybody could help me figure out why email from
our domain, yesmagazine.org, is being blocked, but only by two
companies, both schools. Here are the messages I receive when I try to
send them an email:

School 1
Received: 550 5.7.1 Fix reverse DNS for 67.40.31.37
School 2
Received: 550 5.7.1 E410 host lookup verification of 67.40.31.37
failed

My domain is yesmagazine.org, we do in fact have a Reverse DNS record
set up for 67.40.31.37, and it is accepted by most domains.

The only thing I can think of is that these institutions are doing an
A record lookup on the response from the ReverseDNS lookup. The A
record points to our website, which is a different server, so it would
fail. If that's the case, I don't know how to fix it.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Kevin

Dmitry, thanks for your response. Does anything stand out to you as
incorrect? The DNS report has a few warnings, but none of them seem to
be particularly troublesome. The dig shows me what my DNS settings
are, but I can't tell from that why a handful of domains are telling
me my ReverseDNS is incorrect.

Yes. It seems yesmagazine.org does not have MX record on DNS. The
answer section shows it
;;ANSWER SECTION:
yesmagazine.org. 86400 IN NS ns1.webcontrolcenter.com.
yesmagazine.org. 86400 IN NS ns2.webcontrolcenter.com.

and thats all!
dnsstuff.com report:
"FAIL Connect to mail servers ERROR: I could not complete a connection
to one or more of your mailservers"

MX record in DNS (must resolv in both directions) sould solve the
problem...
Sorry for my english.
