reverse lookup record?

In trying to determine why email from my domain is being blocked by AOL
I came to this page
http://postmaster.aol.com/info/rdns.html
I'm looking specifically at this bit:
"Reverse DNS must be in the form of a fully-qualified domain name –
reverse DNSes containing in-addr.arpa are not acceptable, as these are
merely placeholders for a valid PTR record."
My PTR record looks like this:
137 IN PTR dataentropy.com.
and it's in the file for zone "238.55.69.IN-ADDR.ARPA"
so, wouldn't that mean that the record actually reads:
137.238.55.69.IN-ADDR.ARPA. IN PTR dataentropy.com.
Is there anything wrong with that?
