I'm not sure if this helps, but there are quite some
differences between normal applications that use the
libresolv (usually part of the libc), such as milter-
greylist, and tools like dig, nslookup and host which
contain special resolver code.  For example, these
tools ignore /etc/hosts completely, and they always
query only the first nameserver, without falling back
to the next one if it fails.

Maybe those differences are causing the symptoms that
you are seeing.

Best regards
   Oliver
