Nor do I. I was very surprised to see the described behaviour. I knew
though that dnslists and IPv6 didn't play together well at the current
time, so I unwisely voiced a suspicion about Exim.

I then _tested_ and posted the results of those tests, showing that
Exim was behaving correctly, pointing the finger firmly at the RBL in
use.

This would be why I made the rather blunt comment about reading other
mails first.
