+Subject: dnsmasq suggestion
+To: simon@thekelleys.org.uk
+
+
+Hello,
+
+I recently needed a feature in dnsmasq for a very bizarre situation. I
+placed a list of name servers in a special resolve file and told dnsmasq
+to use that. But I wanted it to try requests in order and treat NXDOMAIN
+requests as a failed tcp connection. I wrote the feature into dnsmasq
+and it seems to work. I prepared a patch in the event that others might
+find it useful as well.
+
+Thanks and keep up the good work.
