We typically ignore that because we've never seen this complaint from other mail servers and no one has ever provided a business use for the one site that is complaining.

"We typically ignore that because we've never seen this complaint from 
other mail servers" is nonsense, you just don't know why soemtimes mails 
not get delivered or silently dropped

we are one of them, if you are coming with a generic PTR and not have a 
matching SPF policy and/or listed on well known DNSWL it's safe to 
assume you are a enduser machine with no business sending mail to a MX 
or a admin not understanding http://www.emailtalk.org/ptr.aspx and care 
about your outgoing mail
