Hi All. Will some mail servers reject mail from hosts that don't have a
valid reverse name? To prevent this and other unforeseen issues, I want to
make sure I know what options I have for valid names. Am I correct that the
name should contain 'mail' or mx'? Are there any other options? This is what
am thinking of naming my mailserver.
mx1.mydomain.com

Thanks for you help,
Brian
