Transactional emails coming from the WordCamp.org web server are getting dinged on their SpamAssassin score for not having correct Reverse DNSDNS DNS is an acronym for Domain Name System - how you assign a human readable address to a website’s exact numeric coded location (ie. wordpress.org uses the actual IP address 198.143.164.252)..

Presumably, the PTR should point to wordcamp.org instead of wordpress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/. This is the SpamAssassin rule message:
0.8 RDNS_NONE Delivered to internal network by a host with no rDNS
0.8
is almost 20% of the default spam threshold of 5
, which gives us a lot less of a buffer, and we believe it’s contributing to ongoing reports of messages being flagged as spam.
Could we get the PTR record amended to address this issue?
