Please, get rid of nslookup. One of its main problems is that it produces
invalid output in many cases, this is one of them.

"dig any mirrors.updates.spamassassin.org. @b.auth-ns.sonic.net."
produces OK output

mirrors.updates.spamassassin.org. 3600 IN TXT "http://spamassassin.apache.org/updates/MIRRORED.BY

well, that's somehow crazy, normally one makes dns round-robin for a hostname and then load that file from one of the mirrors because all the mirrors don't help much when "spamassassin.apache.org" is down
