I rebooted my ISA server and DNS lookups started to pass via ISA even
without DNS packet filter.
It seems that there was some unrelated problem, maybe temporary problems on
the external DNS resolvers or something else...
Anyway, today I re-tested this and have got absolutely positive results.
Happy to make sure the things take their normal course. I mean Packet
filters / Protocol rules effect on the snat clients.
Thanks everybody who responded to this.

Regards,
Andrew
