+The &(dnsdb)& lookup fails only if all the DNS lookups fail. If there is a
+temporary DNS error for any of them, the behaviour is controlled by
+a defer-option modifier.
+The possible keywords are
+&"defer_strict"&, &"defer_never"&, and &"defer_lax"&.
+With &"strict"& behaviour, any temporary DNS error causes the
+whole lookup to defer. With &"never"& behaviour, a temporary DNS error is
+ignored, and the behaviour is as if the DNS lookup failed to find anything.
+With &"lax"& behaviour, all the queries are attempted, but a temporary DNS
+error causes the whole lookup to defer only if none of the other lookups
+succeed. The default is &"lax"&, so the following lookups are equivalent:
+.code
+${lookup dnsdb{defer_lax,a=one.host.com:two.host.com}}
+${lookup dnsdb{a=one.host.com:two.host.com}}

+Thus, in the default case, as long as at least one of the DNS lookups
+yields some data, the lookup succeeds.

+With &"strict"& or &"lax"& DNSSEC information is requested
+with the lookup.
+With &"strict"& a response from the DNS resolver that
+is not labelled as authenticated data
+is treated as equivalent to a temporary DNS error.
