Subject: IPv6 sendmail problem


One for you gurus out there...

I'm using IPv6 with sendmail 8.13.1 on RHEL 4 box.

Got problems relaying. My access db contains these IPv6 lines:

IPv6:2001:0630:00d0 RELAY
IPv6:2001:630:d0 RELAY
[IPv6:2001:0630:00d0] RELAY

As you can see I have tried a few variants :-)

But I still get these errors:

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to relay.ecs.soton.ac.uk.:


                  DATA


<<< 550 5.7.1 <user at domain.ac.uk>... Relaying denied. IP name
lookup failed [IPv6:2001:630:d0:f110:204:23ff:feb3:e42c]
550 5.1.1 user at domain.ac.uk... User unknown
<<< 503 5.0.0 Need RCPT (recipient)

(Names changed to protect the innocent)

It appears to be ignoring my IPv6 RELAY lines altogether.

Any ideas?
