I'm sorry I started this off-topic flame war... I start using sendmail
in 1990s and it was the best, but it was some ages ago, when all mail
servers should accept mail from anywere in order to allow users to
migrate around the net (today we have spam and we call this
configuration open-relay and it's evil)... of course sendmail is a lot
different from the ancient sendmail we run in 1990s, but when in
switched from sendmail to postfix (maybe 10 years ago) I didn't miss at
all the m4 macros and the sendmail.cf ;-)
....even ios 10.x was good, but that's not the ios we looks for when we
install new networ gears
...and again, I'm offtopic, sorry again (I promise it's the last mail I
send on this topic)
BTW, the problem with smtp over ipv6, as for my experience, is not with
the MTA/MDA, but with antispam filters, webmails, stats software, etc,
which, not always are ipv6 ready :-(
