I use a Centos Server in Windows HyperV. When I was sent a mail over this server, I get an error mail.
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

As the error states, The IP address sending this message does not have a PTR record setup, so you need to set the PTR record for 185.124.86.138 (it is quite usual that receiving mail server requires this). Reverse DNS is controlled by whoever "owns" the IP address, so you should probably contact Bilgehosting to set the record for you)
