Keep in mind some hosts will reject mail from systems
whose IP's resolve into something that looks too much
like a resedential account.

For ex. my employer has a business DSL account, and
our SMTP server is properly configured (doesn't allow
relaying, etc.) - but some sites refuse to receive
mail from us because they see the "dsl" in our
reverse lookup.

Just FYI . . .
