That would take care of things if the rejection is due to an RBL, but 
the rejection is stated as being due to lack of rDNS, which is 
different. The only thing I know of that rejects due to missing rDNS 
(using qmail) is spamdyke (a very good anti-spam tool btw).

What specifically is causing the reject? You might post a sample from 
your smtp log if you can't tell. If it's spamdyke, then the spamdyke 
config has several ways of whitelisting.
