check_reverse_dns
shallowdev.dnsdoctor/dns-doctor · Verify this server
Check one sending IP's forward-confirmed reverse DNS (FCrDNS): reads the IP's PTR record, then resolves that hostname back and reports whether it returns to the same IP. `verdict` is confirmed (the pair agrees — what receivers want to see), ptr_missing (the IP publishes no reverse record), or mismatch (a PTR that does not resolve back). A PTR on its own proves nothing, because the IP's operator writes its own reverse zone — only the forward confirmation is evidence, so never report a bare PTR as verified. The fix is always made by whoever controls the IP (the hosting or mail provider), never in the sending domain's own DNS. Pass a public IPv4 or IPv6 address.
