Reverse DNS showing IP

Hi everyone, I've tried [url=http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/11_25/WHMDocs/RdnsForBind]Configuring Reverse DNS for BIND and [url=http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/AllDocumentation/WHMDocs/RdnsForBind]Configure Reverse DNS in WHM to set up my reverse DNS. When I do hostname, I get # host 12.345.67.890 890.67.345.12.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer mydomain.com.890.67.345.12.in-addr.arpa.
So when I try to send an email, it gets sent back because RDNS fails. My file in /var/named is 67.345.12.in-addr.arpa. My file: 67.345.12.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN SOA ns60.mydomain.net. support.mydomain.com. ( 2014021205 ;Serial Number 86400 ;refresh 7200 ;retry 3600000 ;expire 86400 ;minimum ) 67.345.12.in-addr.arpa. IN NS ns60.mydomain.net. 67.345.12.in-addr.arpa. IN NS ns50.mydomain.net. 890 IN PTR mydomain.com. 890 IN PTR www.mydomain.com.

  IP address space, just like domains, is allocated to specific nameservers. So make sure your nameservers are authoritative for the IP space you're trying to create PTRs for. Anywho, a hostname like "mydomain.com.890.67.345.12.in-addr.arpa." indicates the absence of a period after the hostname. It's in the zone you pasted, but not sure if that zone is the one that's actually loaded.

  Hello :) Please ensure that your data center/network provider has delegated the ability to setup your own PTR record on the server. Some data centers restrict this ability and must setup the record for you. Thank you.
