Unknown DNS packets

Sometimes I find my iptables based firewall discards a large number of DNS
packet directed to the IP address of our mail server. This occurs several
times per day.
Sources are different IP addresses, each having at the same time the same
idea to query a non existent DNS. Anybody could explain that?
Does this happens to anybody else? Is this an attempted exploit of
something? Of what?

Please anybody helps me shed some light

Thanks

I ran the IP's through ARIN and RIPE, some are american based, and some are
in London England.

It could be somebody trying to find security holes, find a spammer machine,
or to relay through.

Keep your dns as read only.
