If config option 'CheckMXRecord' is true (which is default) 
OTRS checks all used email addresses and MX entries. E. g. by

 - creating/updating user
 - creating/updating customer
 - composing a answer

In this case the cpan module Email::Valid is used. This works
with Net::DNS. If Net::DNS isn't installed Email::Valid wants to
use nslookup.

I forgot to add this to the INSTALL file. Sorry.

PS: I added also "Don't use CheckMXRecord if your OTRS machine
is behinde a dial-up line ($)!".
