Thanks Rick,

I was polling Sprintlink.net DNS and it was not answering. I fixed 
that and now poll my own DNS server, which does get answers from 
upstream Sprintlink.net servers (my ISP).

The issue got mostly fixed, though still getting errors like this:
Dec 19 10:35:40 mxt named[2104]: unexpected RCODE (REFUSED) resolving 
'dns-sec-01.rdc-nyc.rr.com/A/IN': 24.29.99.13#53
Dec 19 10:48:57 mxt named[2104]: unexpected RCODE (REFUSED) resolving 
'88.250.216.24.in-addr.arpa/PTR/IN': 66.215.64.13#53

which I suspect are harmless, because my mail server is functioning 
fine with caching DNS.

Thanks,
Glenn Parsons
