I discovered that IPv6 is sort of working when I got an email rejection from Comcast for not having an IPv6 PTR record. I discovered I could telnet to port 25 on their MX server over IPv6! I then found I could tracroute6 to them, but I couldn't to my Linode VPS in Fremont. It gets to the data center and stops. Going the other way, my Linode can traceroute6 almost to my AT&T-hosted server. Neither can reach the open port 25 on the other, but both can reach mx1.comcast.net via IPv6.

I dropped the firewall ("systemctl stop firewalld", confirmed with "ip6tables -L -v -n") on my Fremont server and still can't traceroute6 or ping6 it. Nor can I do so from my home system on Comcast.

What else could be blocking ping6, traceroute6, and telnet to port 25 on IPv6?

From AT&T host to Linode host:
