Your reverse lookup is fine

Non-authoritative answer:
64.71.124.4.in-addr.arpa        name = 4.124.71.64.cin.dial.core.com

To be honest my memory on this topic is somewhat fuzzy.

So:

In wcConfig -> Mail Server -> Primary Domain 

Is your Local Domain Name and Local Site Name set correctly?

In wcConfig -> Mail Server -> Primary Domain -> Hosts -> DefaultHost

Is the site name and domain name set correctly?

** Most importantly 

In wcConfig -> Mail Server -> SMTP Server

Is Local domain name set correctly?

Also Hector maybe populating the domain name from a local IP lookup so if
your PC has a Private IP Address i.e. 192.168.x.x etc does your DNS or
local hosts file have a proper entry for your PC/Host.
