Note that this doesn't work if the resolver has an ACL applied that restricts who can do resolution on it and you don't fall within that ACL.
This is the case, sadly. I wanted to propose your method too. :-)
But the bigger hurdle here is really figuring out what the resolver mail.merit.edu uses, since it's most likely open.
Not a big hurdle. Run tcpdumps on the auth servers of a domain from which you do a test connect to mail.merit.edu. Of course, this machine shouldn't be in their cache already. You'll find out that mail.merit.edu runs a local DNS cache and that it refuses any queries from outside. Best regards, Daniel
