Thanks to everyone for their answers. In switching service providers we have arranged for both providers to be active at the same time for a few weeks. The old provider has reverse DNS set up but the new provider does not yet have that set up. I was thinking of allowing incomming email from both by having two A records but alowing outgoing email only through the old provider that has the working reverse DNS. When the new provider also has reverse DNS set up then I can switch outgoing email and close down the old connection. I turns out that it is harder than I thought to allow incomming connections from both providers at the same time, so I may not do that after all.
