How to Set Up a Reverse DNS (PTR) Record

Reverse DNS (rDNS) maps an IP address back to a hostname. It's required for email servers and improves deliverability.

Why You Need rDNS

  • Email servers check rDNS to verify sender legitimacy
  • Without proper rDNS, your emails may be marked as spam
  • Some services require rDNS for abuse prevention

How to Set Up

Reverse DNS records are configured at the IP address level, not at the domain registrar. Contact Kazepute support to set up a PTR record for your Breeze's IP address.

Verify

dig -x YOUR_IP_ADDRESS
host YOUR_IP_ADDRESS

The output should show your domain name.
