This can happen for a number of reasons. The first troubleshooting step should be asking your different recursors what NS records they have for this domain, and comparing those (as well as to what the authoritative server has). Without that information one can't really help. > If I query the authoritative server, I get a SERVFAIL: > $ dig @localhost mail.hivelocity.net This query was directed at the local server, not an authoritative server for this domain. There have been a number of fixes put in 3.1.X that help it better resolve domains in certain corner cases. The NS records on each server will reveal the problem.
