Hello,

We have been looking at some DNS resolvers and encountered a question:

When a DNS response contains (in the answer section) records which were
not requested, how should the resolver react to those and what should
it return to the requesting client?

For example:

QUESTION:
example.com       IN   A
ANSWER:
example.com       IN   CNAME  www.example.com
www.example.com   IN   A      3600 1.2.3.4
google.com        IN   A      3600 5.6.7.8

Tangentially related is very recent (two weeks old!) experiment which looked at handling unsolicited RRs in the AUTHORITY section.
