Since you mention *understanding* the issue.  The simple answer is they
use different mechanisms for resolving the name.  One of which exposes a
recently introduced problem.

There's been quite a lot about this DNS issue lately, with various

work for some users, but not for others, and don't actually fix the
problem.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
