Likely. That is what I have. I run the name server on the same machine
as SpamAssassin so it's 127.0.0.1 rather than the external address.
(And yes, I do know I am a bad girl for mixing firewall and servers on
the same machine.)

Thats what I thought. I changed my resolv.conf to show nameserver 127.0.0.1
did a network restart, but the Net::DNS tests are determined to use
192.168.1.2, I wonder if a system restart is needed?

Does resolv.conf STILL show local host?

And does your local host also support a caching server for the whole
internet? That's the usual setup you need.
