We are seeing intermittent but frequent SERVFAIL errors for Microsoft owned 
hostnames in MX records.  Specifically with *.mail.protection.outlook.com 
hostnames.  In the BIND logs we see something like this:

28-Apr-2016 13:35:01.139 query-errors: debug 1: client 10.10.10.96#48950 
(pitt-edu.mail.protection.outlook.com): query failed (SERVFAIL) for 
pitt-edu.mail.protection.outlook.com/IN/A at query.c:7004

That appears to be a fairly generic error in query.c:

                /*
                 * Something has gone wrong.
                 */
                QUERY_ERROR(DNS_R_SERVFAIL);
                goto cleanup;

Is anyone else seeing this?  I suspect it has something to do with DNSSEC or 
possibly AAAA records, but haven’t proved it yet.  Any help would be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob Heilman
