Static IP PTR reverse DNS

Hi,
I now have a static IP on my Plusnet Broadband connection. At the moment the reverse DNS PTR record for my static IP is my "accountname".plus.com. Which is not ideal from an GDPR point of view. Also as I plan to run my own email server on the static IP ideally need the PTR record to point to FQDN of my mail server hosted on the static IP.
Is it possible to have the PTR reverse DNS record for my plusnet static IP point to an A record in my own personal domain.
Kind Regards
Kev

Any PN staff on the forum that can help. I called PN support desk and unfortunately they were notable to assist.
Is it possible:
1. To have the rDNS of my static IP be something other than accountname.plus.com
2. Have the rDNS for my static IP point to a FQDN on my personal domain such as smpt1.mydomain.com
Kind Regards
Kevin

Thanks Adam, I have the forward DNS setup already for my static IP. Is there anyway I can PM you the forward DNS A record.

@kevinjb click on Adams forum name (in Purple) , that should bring up his profile page. On the rhs you should see a Send Private Message icon
