Why would that explain the failure to answer DNS queries? DNS servers are supposed to
answer queries from everyone. I've never heard of failing to do so. FWIW, I just
tried asking ns1.protonmail.ch about mail.protonmail.ch, and it was happy to answer me (to
my random Comcast client addresses, IPv4 and IPv6 both work).
