I made IPv6 a non-default option in mail/courier because it failed to resolve DNS addresses with IPv6 enabled, at least for me. That particular program always tries to resolve DNS over IPv6 first and then IPv4, so it's also slightly slower with IPv6 enabled. And in my case it didn't work at all. Possibly cause I run djbdns instead of BIND. I don't think djbdns does IPv6 yet. -- Yarema To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
