AOL says the PTR record needs to be assigned. It doesn't specify it has to match the @domain.com in the MAIL FROM: header. Wouldn't it be enough to make sure every IP address you announce has a PTR and matching A record? Hasn't this been a requirement for MANY services for MANY years?
Right -- and then folks will start creating wildcard PTR records... --Steve Bellovin, http://www.research.att.com/~smb
