That error means the mail server is trying to do a reverse lookup on the ip
and it fails, so it;s not accepting mail. You'll need to contact the host
and ask them to fix the rDNS records.

It looks like the mail server you are trying to relay through doesn't like
the fact that your reverse DNS is broken. If I were you, I'd contact
(e-mail address removed) and ask them to fix it.
