While it's possible to enter those bad apples with a server{} statement in 
named.conf, this reactive approach is not always feasible. In our cases this 
week some mail bounced, since our MTAs could not resolve some domainnames and 
customers obviously don't like that, which triggered some support cases etc.

After further analysis of our logs the problem probably really is not all that 
big, just very few names where not resolvable. Nonetheless, we've decided to 
leave one of resolvers at 9.16 for now as a "last resort" for those faulty 
names, and the other resolvers continue to run fine with 9.18.

If I can find a few definite way to easily identify these bad apples from our 
resolver logs, I might notify the operators. I guess https://ednscomp.isc.org/ 
already has a way more comprehensive view on the issue and therefore better 
data for such notifications though ;-)
