But in this case it is an example of poor form for the forward and
reverse dns not to match.  If you are running a mail server this is
one of the things that should be set up properly for it.  When that is
fixed then the rule won't trigger on it as a side-effect of doing the
right thing.  And unless I am mistaken this change has already been
made.

  host 80.237.202.55
  55.202.237.80.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer flyerheaven.de.

  host flyerheaven.de
  flyerheaven.de has address 80.237.202.55

That looks much better!
