Hello,

Section 5 of draft-ietf-spfbis-4408bis-14 has the following text:

  'When any mechanism fetches host addresses to compare with <ip>, when
   <ip> is an IPv4, "A" records are fetched; when <ip> is an IPv6
   address, "AAAA" records are fetched.  SPF implementations on IPv6
   servers need to handle both "AAAA" and "A" secords, for clients on
   IPv4 mapped IPv6 addresses [RFC4291].  IPv4 <ip> addresses are only
   listed in an SPF record using the "ip4" mechanism.'

Is the text about "IPv4 mapped IPv6 addresses" correct?

Regards,
S. Moonesamy (as document shepherd)
