I disagree whole-heartedly with this statement.  Virtual hosters and
companies with multiple corporate entities using one mail server is just one
of the very legitimate reasons for this.  I would also put forth that the
concept of any security methodology based on reverse DNS seems highly
antiquated.

But, I also believe firmly that not penalizing legitimate email should be
significantly more important than SPAM proliferation as much as I hate SPAM.
False Positives are 100x worse then SPAM.
