That seems really screwed: - A query for returns.bulk.yahoo.com. NS returns an SOA record pointing to @ns1.yahoo.com. - A query for returns.bulk.yahoo.com. NS at @ns1.yahoo.com. returns returns.bulk.yahoo.com. being a CNAME for mailer1.bulk.scd.yahoo.com. - A query for mailer1.bulk.scd.yahoo.com. NS at @ns1.yahoo.com. returns mailer1.bulk.scd.yahoo.com. being a CNAME for t1.bullet.scd.yahoo.com. - A query for t1.bullet.scd.yahoo.com.
