You need to speak to the ISP responsible for the IP address, Cable & Wireless Panama, and ask them to provide reverse DNS. Since you aren't responsible for the address block the IP is in, nobody's DNS server is going to ask yours what the reverse DNS should be.

Like mikegrb said the people that own your IP address will have to do the PTR.
If your mail server PTR doesn't exist your mail may well get filtered by spamassassin and others.

Also:

Don't use a CNAME for a mail server, The RFC's say it has to be an A record.
And mx2 is missing.
