Can someone from Microsoft please contact me off-list?  We have been noticing
a few odd behaviors regarding some Microsoft domains.

Specifically, the TTL of the various address records for the NS-set for
microsoft.com are/were not consistent:

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
ns1.msft.net.   2480    IN  A     65.55.37.62
ns1.msft.net.   42936   IN  AAAA  2a01:111:2005::1:1

ns5.msft.net.   42936   IN  AAAA  2a01:111:200f:1::1:1

What is wrong (technically speaking) with that? The A and AAAA
records don't have to have the same TTL.

They do seem to have made them uniformly 3600 st the authoritative
servers now.

I could find other things to complain about them, though, such as
how they don't support EDNS, and the IPv6 addresses seem not to
be working from here...
