By default, Plusnet assigns my username to my fixed IP in the PTR record, i.e. username.plus.com. I have a mailserver attached to this IP. Can I change the PTR value to my FQDN? Does anyone know how this can be done?
Fixed! Go to the fix.

@Capital Yes, you ask here, and one of the staff will pickup the request and ask for confirmation.
Assuming you already have a forward pointing A record to your FQDN, then the rDNS PTR can be set to that.
Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

Thank you MisterW.
My FQDN is [Removed]
I confirm that I have a A record in my DNS table for exactly that value.
Thank you.

I'd edit your post to remove the FQDN , this is a public forum. Staff will ask for the details either in a PM or by a ticket on your account.

Hi @Capital thank you for getting in touch.
I tried searching for your account using your email address, however, I wasn't able to locate it.
At your earliest convenience, please direct message me with the Plusnet username so that I can raise this off to our NetOps team.
I look forward to hearing from you soon
