Bind - OPT UDPsize=1232 ?

Hi, If I switch between having Bind go lookup a name, and dig - I can see a difference in tcpdump, i.e. Bind 9.16.16: 11:44:19.041785 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3613, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 66) Us.54445 > Them.53: 3636 [1au] MX? somedomain.org. ar: . OPT UDPsize=12
