Ah. Philip emailed me about this problem. Unfortunetly, as I don't run
linux (well till my last weeks install of Mandrake 7.[ugh]), I have'nt
tested exim-Ipv6 on this.

I have tested this and it works on Net and OpenBSD. So I am guessing
this should work with yours as well.

Everyday, I mean every single day someone tells me that IPv6
would never work out. And I shrug and tell them, I use it coz it helps my
firewalled boxes to be alive as real boxes on the net..
Anyway, I am happy that someone on linux is trying exim+Ipv6. The more
the better;-)
