USAGE

32       Why does Net::DNS::Resolver::query() return undef when the ANSWER sec‐
33       tion is empty?
34
35       The short answer is, don't use query().  Net::DNS::Resolver::send()
36       will always return the answer packet, as long as an answer was
37       received.
38
39       The longer answer is that query() is modeled after the res_query()
40       function from the libresolv C library, which has similar behaviors.
