That is correct. You want the blocker to be first in line for your email handling so that it can filter and inspect properly and then deposit the filtered mail to your mail server. And as you say, you'll want the PTR record to match.

It's important that you have A & PTR records set correctly. Failure to have correct reverse dns is a major problem for many senders of mail.
There are some good guidelines on the internet around other best practices that are worth reading, including:
