Invalid ptr/dns... listed in spamcannibal

Hello, i have a vps server in my business.  
Our email , today , is going out perfectly.   But somedays not.


We are listed in spammcanibal:

Click for WhoisIP: 86.109.167.171  ES      
       h0056.hostytec.com
       Spain
        spam source, anonymous/un-named IP
       see:
             86.109.167.10


Our server ip : 86.109.167.171
domain related about:  hotelalbayzindelmar.es

Our host in hosting has name: h0056.hostytec.com


When i try to remove our address from spamcannibal i get:

"
86.109.167.171 not eligible for removal: GENERIC PTR
h0056.hostytec.com
Why are you listed?
Fix these problems before asking for removal from our database.

Your host sends spam.

My dns configuracion for this domains are:
http://www.mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=mx%3ahotelalbayzindelmar.es


SMTP test in mxtoolbox shows:

220 h0056.hostytec.com ESMTP
 OK - 86.109.167.171 resolves to h0056.hostytec.com
 OK - Reverse DNS matches SMTP Banner
 0 seconds - Good on Connection time
 Not an open relay.
 2.387 seconds - Good on Transaction time

Interesting I have never seen that type of spam block before.

Couple things to add -
Your SPF record has the mechanisms "a" and "mx", which both resolve to your IP.  Not only is that redundant, but it requires 3 additional DNS lookups per SPF check, which all resolve to the same thing :)

The best practice for your SPF record is
"v=spf1 ip4:86.109.167.171 ~all"

Hello again, sorry by my delayed response.

jakethecatuk:
  Can i create that rdns entry in the upper table ?
  I'm using plesk on vps.

Papertrip:
 Thanks by your tip.  I'll try that later when i get move out from spamcannibal..
unlikley that you can create your own rDNS record.  that is normally completed by your ISP as they own that part of DNS.
