Exchange 2010 with multiple domains

I have an SBS2011 server running the latest version of Exchange. My current setup is an MX record that sends email to IP 123.123.123.123 and a subsequent PTR record that goes in reverse.

I have setup another two domains as authorative domains and have been using SBS POP3 connector to use them but due to a sudden increase of users for those domains, I would like to make them “exchange complliant”.

My idea is to change the MX records for each domain to 123.123.123.123 and use the webhost as a backup with a higher priority to ensure some redundancy. How would I go about setting up the PTR for the new domains though?

From my understanding you can only have one PTR per IP.

To summarise:

Primary domain: MX record ->123.123.123.123 PTR-> domainname ->123.123.123.123 (which works fine)
secondary domain: MX record->123.123.123.123 PTR->?
