Than you for your message.
Well, this is all true to the fact. I agree with you almost 100%.

They actually do because it resolves OK one way, it does not resolve the other 
way around FCrDNS (forward confirmed DNS) because it’s generic PTR...

There are not too many providers to choose from where I am at. Then again if I 
moved to a datacenter then I would need my "first point of access" to be made 
through the same local two ISPs (only two of them here)... 
It’s a virtual server.

in general bad - i tend to block such PTR's because the postmaster
finds not worth to care about a clean reputation and if i face
too much spam from other "*.your.isp.com", well you have to bite it

if your IP is from a eastern country i don't hestitate a second
and place the whole /16 subnet of your ISP on the RBL in case
of spam delivery

PTR and A don't match

then switch to a different ISP or move your mailserver
somewhere in a datacenter (rootserver, VPS....)
