First question: have you looked at the BIND logs on your internal resolvers?

www.adobe.com is a CNAME to www.wip4.adobe.com, which has an A record.

This leads to a 3-name CNAME chain into Akamai domains. Most resolvers
should be able to follow it. Perhaps yours isn't? Or your firewalls have
decided they know better?

Maybe, but you're best of looking at your caching resolver logs, and/or
firewalls logs.
