A spammer probably happened to use wap.pangia.biz as a reply
address, and sendmail asked the nameserver to get the IP
corresponding to it. The rdns of that IP didn't match
"wap.pangia.biz" and a message was generated.
The rdns of the pangia address (66.28.189.115) returns as
mail15.mail2world.com, so whoever registered the pangia address
at register.com (the registrar of record) didn't coordinate with
mail2world very well. Or, they want two rdns for that IP for
whatever reason. Or, no one ever told mail2world about the domain
registration. I didn't see smtp.pangia.com in the records, however.
