I agree with you to some extend.
My 0.02c: A host with a broken FQDN or no FQDN at all should *not* be allowed to take part in normal smtp traffic. If some admin/provider/whatever is unable to create proper forward and reverse DNS and MX zones/entries for a domain, he/she should go baking cookies for christmas instead, sorry.
yes but what happens if you have a lousy provider who has not implemented the reverse dns for your ip, can you force him to set it ?
Yes you can. By "voting with your wallet / your feet". Just as you don't buy crappy software or hardware (and maybe tell the vendor why you cannot buy his stuff but instead take your money elsewhere) you can choose to not accept a service provider(!) who doesn't even provide most common basics. :> If more customers would act this way there would be less nonsense produced and sold since there's no place on the market ...
