Hi.

Now, finally, we have a production-ready native IPv6 connection. Sam, you 
added SOURCE_ADDRESS_IPV6 this June, that was an important feature, thank you.

But at the moment, I cannot get it to work.
The machine is a server running courier for years, so basic configuration is 
fine, I am sure to use the correct config file directory and so on.

I upgraded to courier-0.65.2, which should contain this change.

Logfile states:
Dec 18 15:47:09 zucker courierd: Courier 0.65.2 Copyright 1999-2008 Double 
Precision, Inc.


Then, I set in /etc/courier/courierd config file the following lines:
SOURCE_ADDRESS="78.46.69.5"
SOURCE_ADDRESS_IPV6="2a01:4f8:120:5201::2"

As courier always prefers IPv4 (why?), I set a custom route in esmtproutes:
mehl.schokokeks.org: [2a01:4f8:121:1ffe::2]

Then, I sent a test message to [email protected]. The header of that 
message, after receipt, contains:

Received: from zucker.schokokeks.org ([2a01:4f8:120:5201:1:1102:0:161])
  (TLS: TLSv1/SSLv3,256bits,AES256-SHA)
  by mehl.schokokeks.org with ESMTPS; Sat, 18 Dec 2010 15:45:58 +0100
  id 0000000000002416.000000004D0CC926.00000790

So the source address was 2a01:4f8:120:5201:1:1102:0:161, not 
2a01:4f8:120:5201::2 as I configured.

Both addresses are configured on eth0 of that machine.
Do you have any clue why this does not work?

I need a specific source address because I only have a reverse-DNS-record for 
this, not for the other addresses.
