I've read that FAQ back then but it lacks any proper explanation why my email address could have failed. My guess is that the forward and reverse mapping differ. But it would be nonsense to check that, because that's a typical setup for small businesses running their services on a few servers instead of a dedicated server for each service. SixXs enforces their point of view on the DNS setup. But that's not the way the internet works. The common method is to check for reverse mapping but not if forward and reverse mapping are exactly the same, otherwise it would break a lot of things. 

Regards,
Markus
