Nobody uses that format to report problems. Spammers use it to sneak stuff into your mailserver. You're not missing out on anything. Its thorough and respectable for them to inform you of it, but in reality, you're better off as you already are.

Running my site against DNSreport.com results in the following complaint:
WARN: One or more of your mailservers does not accept mail in the domain literal format (user@[0.0.0.0]). Mailservers are technically required RFC1123 5.2.17 to accept mail to domain literals for any of its IP addresses. Not accepting domain literals can make it more difficult to test your mailserver, and can prevent you from receiving E-mail from people reporting problems with your mailserver. However, it is unlikely that any problems will occur if the domain literals are not accepted.

What do I have misconfigured? Thanks,
