Do you have helo_try_verify_hosts=* or some such, or verify=helo in your
ACL?

If you do (and I suspect you do), I'll leave it as an exercise to the
reader as to why these messages are appearing in your logs.

And no, they are nothing to worry about. There is no misconfiguration
in your DNS in this respect.
