You're going about this all wrong. 

dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net will not have an A record, its not how dnsbl's
normally work. 

You placing them in an ACL makes no difference, SORBS is the one who
controls access to their resources, its SORBS server not answering you,
there is nothing you can do about it, though you shouldnt be querying a
particular SORBS NS, just the name itself. you should have no entries
anywhere for SORBS except in your SMTP/WWW_Module configs, like, for
example in postfix: 

reject_rbl_client dul.dnsbl.sorbs.net 

I wont go into the fact bind 9.8 is so old its unsupported :)
