Extract from: http://nixforums.org/about25455-Help-Diagnosing-CNAME_lookup_failed_temporar ily.html "The likely cause of this is qmail's inability to handle large DNS packets. The most-recommended solution is to install dnscache (from djbdns), which trims off some unnecessary data and usually makes these packets small enough for qmail to handle. The more correct solution is to apply the "oversize DNS packets" patch to qmail (see qmail.org). A hackish-but-fast solution is to choose one of Earthlink's MXs, and put it in your smtproutes file. Not good long-term, but it will get the mail out of your queue while you work on a better solution." I wouldn't put earthlinks mx in your smtproutes but you could put in you isp's if you wanted to as a quick and dirty fix.
