Issue DNS Settings - Possibly forged hostname

Malte

New Pleskian
Hi,

I am getting a (small) amount of rejected emails with this error after a Plesk Migration to 12.5. We never had any issues before the migration so I am bit lost:

Message is waiting at host2.anwaltonline.com for delivery to mx01.xworks.net.

Message delivery has been delayed to the following recipients:
Recipient: [SMTP:[email protected]]
Reason: Remote SMTP Server Returned: 451 4.1.8 Possibly forged hostname for 67.43.1.130

My host informed me that all DNS settings are in order. A check on shows this for the server in question:

http://dnstools.fastnext.com/index.php?fDNSreport=anwaltonline.com

MX: FAILED. The IPs of not all of your mail server(s) have correct reverse DNS (PTR) entries. The reverse DNS entries are:

142.140.59.209.in-addr.arpa. host2.anwaltonline.com. [TTL=3600]

Since I have no idea about DNS: Can anyone confirm that this issue is not with the DNS setup but with the receiver's mail setup? If its my side: What changes are required?
 
Hi Malte,

nope, it's a misconfiguration at YOUR side:
