It is NOT safe to assume that you have a DNS name when using IPv6, so, sending one's IPv6 address is very much the only sensible option to me. > If Thunderbird is really sending "EHLO [IPv6:2001...]", then the > error message is absolutly correct because a valid IPv6 address does > not start with "IPv6:". Yes it is correct. IP addresses have a different format for SMTP: "[1.2.3.4]" for IPv4 and "[IPv6:1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8]" for IPv6. -- R�mi Denis-Courmont
