Of course it fails. If you omit "-o inet_interfaces=2001:470:1f0b:bd0::3"
from master.cf, it will use "inet_interfaces = 188.138.4.217,
2001:470:1f0b:bd0::3" from main.cf.
IF you specify an IPv4 address in inet_interfaces.
THEN you must enable IPv4 support with inet_protocols.
IF you don't want to enable IPv4 support
THEN don't specify an IPv4 address in inet_interfaces.
