You'd prefer maybe "Dear Buttheads"? I recall the story a few years back where an alpha version of a software product was code named "Carl Sagan Astronomer". He got wind of it somehow and a letter was sent threatening legal action if they kept the name. They renamed it "Butthead Astronomer" to comply with the request.
"Dear Sir" (or "Dear Sirs") is considered standard business usage for correspondence when one isn't sure who will be reading what was sent. While it is certainly not usual to do it for an email (especially to a list like this) I see no reason to chide someone for doing it. -----Original Message----- From: bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org [mailto:bind-users-boun...@lists.isc.org] On Behalf Of Stephane Bortzmeyer Sent: Tuesday, March 10, 2009 7:55 AM To: jittinan suwanrueangsri Cc: bind-users@lists.isc.org Subject: Re: dig error On Tue, Mar 10, 2009 at 05:57:31PM +0700, jittinan suwanrueangsri <jittin...@gmail.com> wrote a message of 254 lines which said: > Dear sir Why "sir"?

After that, dig asks the default resolver for the addresses of name servers. (You can check with tcpdump.) If I'm right, your best solution would be to set up a resolver which uses your root and to direct name resolution at it. _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users Please consider our environment before printing this e-mail or attachments. ---------------------------------- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail may contain privileged or confidential information and is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
