Adobe's admins have been repeatedly told that their nameservers are broken yet refuse / don't know how to fix them. They are Cc'd here again.
The nameservers return bad answers when there is a EDNS option present in the query. e.g. dig +nsid airdownload.wip4.adobe.com @da1gtm001.adobe.com dig +expire airdownload.wip4.adobe.com @da1gtm001.adobe.com dig +subnet=0.0.0.0/0 airdownload.wip4.adobe.com @da1gtm001.adobe.com The first query below as a EDNS COOKIES option. The second does not (note the +nocookie which turns off EDNS COOKIES which is on by default in BIND 9.11. BIND 9.10 Windows sends SIT/EDNS COOKIES option by default. Which option of the two options is version dependent).
