I'd say a good chunk of what you're seeing with regards to reverse DNS not being set up has to do with the fact that folks are tired of fighting with ISPs when they leave and simply work with an outfit like Register.com, using the Register.com DNS servers for forward lookup. Right, wrong, or indifferent, you have to go to the IP block owner (like say Qwest) and get the reverse-DNS set up. That is not always particularly easy. I'm not defending, simply explaining. Especially with the advent of cheap business class broadband, you're seeing far lower service levels than you used to with T1 circuits. Just my observations... Sincerely, Bryan S.
