I am using Exchange 2003 (name riley) on win 2003 AD domain controller. When
I setup my AD, I used abc.com as my domain name. I figured it not a problem
since I am only using it locally. I can send and receive e-mails with no
problem.

Now, since many are using reverse lookup to filter out spam e-mail, I am in
trouble. When you do an nslookup for my exchange server from your server, it
comes up as riley.abc.com with an IP address that belongs to abc.com (which
is another website that does not belong to us). E-mails are being rejected
by those who use reverse lookup because it does not match.

Any idea on how to solve this problem? I really really appreciate it.
