We are in configuring Mail Server and we would like to add a PTR record to our DNS aim against Spam Scope. So please kindly help to guide us to do adding this record.
Am I right in saying that it's therefore not practicably possible to host a mail server with Dynadot DNS? I suspect this because Gmail dictate that we have a valid reverse DNS record (a PTR record) listed to comply with their email sender guidelines: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/81126?hl=en-GB#authentication - so if we want to be able to send to Gmail users, we'll have to use a different DNS provider. Correct?
I have been running a mailserver for a while, with an SPF record set, and Gmail was happy with this until a few days ago. Now all mail sent from my server to Gmail is either outright blocked, or sent to spam with a notice explaining that the sender is in "violation of Google's recommended email sender guidelines".
Thanks for sharing your ideas with us. We do have mail services but looks like it just does not meet your requirement. As for the solusion of your mail issues, I can not say for sure without related details. And I will suggest you to ask gmail or your mail server provider customer service for further help.
I'd love to hear whether or not anyone else is running their own mail server on their own server, and using Dynadot DNS to point to it (this is what I'm trying to do). It just doesn't seem to be possible given what I said before.
Thanks for your advice. We do not have any plans to add those records now, but we can make it a feature request as something to look into in the future.
I'm running into exactly the same issue with hosting my own mail server. I'm getting email bounced from servers because of the lack of a PTR record. (Note that I also reject email from incoming servers where I can't resolve the hostname.)
This seems like a really basic use of dynodes DNS - I can't believe there are only a few folks doing this.
