I think I had offered you a mirror and/or DNS slaves in the past. ATM 
we can't manage the Mercurial and moinmoin, but that might change in 
the near future.

I can still offer you two DNS slaves, if you're interested in that, 
but there are other free/gratis services available which can do that 
quite well.

Sounds like the TTL was too long before a change was made.

dovecot.org.            3600    IN      A       194.89.34.45
45.34.89.194.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN     PTR     mkentta.iki.fi.
mkentta.iki.fi.         86400   IN      A       194.89.34.45

Looks fine, although the PTR is mkentta.iki.fi. and not dovecot.org. 
I'd use "mkentta.iki.fi" as the HELO name if sending mail from there, 
but that shouldn't be much of a problem.
