As an aside, you may want to fix your DNS, as some mail receivers don't like this:
$ dig -x 72.249.91.101 +short static.serversandhosting.com. $ dig a static.serversandhosting.com +short 72.249.3.27
What is really meant to be said is that MTA's which require RFC compliance = won't talk to you. Running an MTA which requires minimal RFC compliance (p= articularly in respect of DNS configuration) eliminates 98% of spam.
Standards track RFC compliance REQUIRES that you ACCEPT email from that box. There is no standards track RFC that requires that PTR records exist. There is no standards track RFC that requires that PTR and address records are consistent. It is however good practice that these exist and are consistent.
