Priority: P2
Bug ID: 6842
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Spamc should have an option to only try v4 addresses
when hostnames are specified with -d.
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Mac OS X
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: PC
Status: NEW
Version: 3.3.2
Component: spamc/spamd
Product: Spamassassin
This is a pretty simple enhancement.
Imagine a setup where spamd lives on a different host, but because of a
previously-filed-bug, only listens on one address class -- and the admin has
chosen to use v4. (Perhaps by specifying -i without an ip address).
What I'm suggesting is an enhancement to discard AAAA records from the
semantics used to look up addresses for -d. This is useful both where v4
connectivity is more stable than v6 (for example, when tunnels are in play),
while still benefitting from the benefits of hostname-mapping rather than
embedding an ip in a config file.
