I am confused by the whole thing. How does woever is querying the rDNS know to ask your server? 

All the IPs I have (which I'm astonished to discover add up to nine different ones) have their rDNS set by the ISP for the connection or by the company I lease the server from. It is in their IP address block, not mine, so putting an entry on my dns server won't help.

Or am I missing something?

Does the DNS server of mail-in-a-box have logs you can read?

We are getting REFUSED when we try to do an AXFR. It is a DNS
response, so it's not firewalling - it is the (lack of)
configuration in the DNS server.

If you can find how to allow our secondary servers to do AXFR then I
think this should all work correctly.

Thanks,
Andy
