That occurred two years ago with domains hosted with Postini. There
were also some other cases where people verified whether the IP
address the MX host resolves to is reachable. The test omitted to
take IPv6 addresses into consideration. This is different from
message header parsing.

Something is already broken. You can either find out what is broken
and fix it or else keep thinking that it can only be dotted quad.
