You should not have to worry about it; however, I am not clear if you mean Web Host Manager? Generally a name server answers queries for its defined domains and ask other name servers (root server for example) for things it doesn't know about. Please clarify WHM, is there an option to specify a root server for it?

mail::spamassassin::dnsresolver
Mail::SpamAssassin::DnsResolver(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mail::SpamAssassin::DnsResolver(3)
NAME
Mail::SpamAssassin::DnsResolver - DNS resolution engine
DESCRIPTION
This is a DNS resolution engine for SpamAssassin, implemented in order to reduce file descriptor usage by Net::DNS and avoid a response
collision bug in that module.
METHODS
$res->load_resolver()
Load the "Net::DNS::Resolver" object. Returns 0 if Net::DNS cannot be used, 1 if it is available.
$resolver = $res->get_resolver()
Return the "Net::DNS::Resolver" object.
$res->nameservers()
Wrapper for Net::DNS::Resolver->nameservers to get or set list of nameservers
$res->connect_sock()
Re-connect to the first nameserver listed in "/etc/resolv.conf" or similar platform-dependent source, as provided by "Net::DNS".
$res->get_sock()
Return the "IO::Socket::INET" object used to communicate with the nameserver.
$packet = new_dns_packet ($host, $type, $class)
A wrapper for "Net::DNS::Packet::new()" which traps a die thrown by it.
To use this, change calls to "Net::DNS::Resolver::bgsend" from:
$res->bgsend($hostname, $type);
to:
$res->bgsend(Mail::SpamAssassin::DnsResolver::new_dns_packet($hostname, $type, $class));
$id = $res->bgsend($host, $type, $class, $cb)
Quite similar to "Net::DNS::Resolver::bgsend", except that when a response packet eventually arrives, and "poll_responses" is called,
the callback sub reference $cb will be called.
Note that $type and $class may be "undef", in which case they will default to "A" and "IN", respectively.
The callback sub will be called with three arguments -- the packet that was delivered, and an id string that fingerprints the query
packet and the expected reply. The third argument is a timestamp (Unix time, floating point), captured at the time the packet was
collected. It is expected that a closure callback be used, like so:
my $id = $self->{resolver}->bgsend($host, $type, undef, sub {
my ($reply, $reply_id, $timestamp) = @_;
$self->got_a_reply ($reply, $reply_id);
});
The callback can ignore the reply as an invalid packet sent to the listening port if the reply id does not match the return value from
bgsend.
$nfound = $res->poll_responses()
See if there are any "bgsend" response packets ready, and return the number of such packets delivered to their callbacks.
$res->bgabort()
Call this to release pending requests from memory, when aborting backgrounded requests, or when the scan is complete.
"Mail::SpamAssassin::PerMsgStatus::check" calls this before returning.
$packet = $res->send($name, $type, $class)
Emulates "Net::DNS::Resolver::send()".
$res->errorstring()
Little more than a stub for callers expecting this from "Net::DNS::Resolver".
If called immediately after a call to $res->send this will return "query timed out" if the $res->send DNS query timed out. Otherwise
"unknown error or no error" will be returned.
No other errors are reported.
$res->finish_socket()
Reset socket when done with it.
$res->finish()
Clean up for destruction.
