I ran into this problem a little while ago.
I found that the problem was the Postfix binds to a port (25) for sending, Linux links that port to an IP when needed. This means that the address may change each time a send is initiated (This is my imperfect understanding of things).

To make sure that postfix used a valid (Google valid) setup I added -o smtp_bind_address and smtp_bind_address6 to the smtp entry in master. This seemed to fix the no PTR found problem for me. The alternative is to add a PTR record for every possible address, not very practical particularly with IPv6.

I am not sure about the "unusual rate..." but I wonder if it is a different manifestation of the same problem.

All I can say is that since adding the smtp_bind... I have not had any problems.

I hope this helps.
