Why don't my email headers suggest I'm dual stacked?


thinkdesignprint.co.nz>_ ~# ifconfig
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:20:01:85:02
           inet addr:117.121.243.25  Bcast:117.121.243.255 
Mask:255.255.255.0
           inet6 addr: 2403:cc00:1000:0:200:20ff:fe01:8502/64 Scope:Global

I've got an IPv6 address on my server but it doesn't look like my mail 
application is using it if you look at the headers in this message.

I discovered this because I thought it might be interesting to have a 
bit of a look at my favourite lists and see how we're going in industry 
for dual stacking.

Mark's comments were fear enough this morning.

If he's bothered to take just 10 seconds to have a look at my message 
headers, it's no wonder he'd be thinking I'm just yanking the chain.

I dual stacked that VPS 18 months ago, but it seems it's not playing the 
game.

It's no wonder that we're only seeing 1% traffic if the traffic isn't 
flowing.
