This wouldn't be wise mouss.  It would reject all mail from a legit
site.  This is a SOHO IP range in Georgia, USA, occupied by an
engineering firm, Uzune & Case.  The bounce originated from a mail host
well behind their MX.  Uzune & Case obviously need better anti spam
measures themselves, but that's a another issue.

Rejecting all of their mail simply based on the generic rDNS of their
outbound MTA is a wrong move, especially since the string clearly
identifies a static range.  fqrdns.pcre would have returned a PREPEND on
this rDNS, not a REJECT, and for good reason.

Simply eliminating backscatter altogether as Noel mentioned is a better
course of action.
