If you want to block spam on IPv6, then you can start by rejecting connections to SMTP from any IPv6 that do not have a 
PTR. No need to analyze the format of the PTR.

It is in several recommendations that a sending email IP must have a PTR.

That ISPs will not do a PTR on all IPv6 but only on static IPv6, improves the spam blocking feature above. No need to 
maintain list of dynamic IP space...
