Unfortunately spamd is IPv4 only. Back in the day (2014ish?, about the time I was finishing up the 3rd ed of The Book of PF) there was talk of and possibly even an ambition of making it IPv6 capable. I remember discussing some of this with phessler at the time and left the descriptions in the book somewhat vague on the matter, hoping to get back to the issue soon. However I never saw code ready for testing. I was under the impression that one of the hurdles to overcome was to define a sane version of greylisting to implement for IPv6 with its much larger set of addresses. But there could easily have been other issues that affected the effort. So until other news on the matter turns up, it is better to rdr-to port spamd only for inet, not inet6.
