We've corresponded offline. I documented the difficulties in providing reverse DNS for IPv6 residential users in http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-howard-isp-ip6rdns-06 It's a long-expired draft, which never found sufficient support from a WG or AD. I've been meaning to rewrap it as a BCOP

Some IPv6 email is not working well for me on my TWC Internet connection due to their IPv6 block not having PTR records. Is it possible for me to delegate my IPv6 range to my own DNS server, or something similar? I have talked to level 3 support and they were pretty much clueless, so I decide to

If your IPv6 subnet is being allocated by TW, then it is up to them whether or not to allow the customer to manage their own rDNS. I have not asked about IPv6 with Comcast Business, but I know with IPv4 IP blcks, they will turn the request around pretty quickly once asked. Robert On Thu,
