This email contains approximately the same information as Randy's did.  Yes,
the SOA's will be different.  That is what is intended.  The nameserver that
is authoritative for 3.2.1.in-addr.arpa is delegating 42.3.2.1.in-addr.arpa
to 5.6.7.86.  Were you trying to make some other point or just showcasing 
your 'dig' skills?
