Hi all,

It's just been made aware to me that my Postfix (version 3.1.2) is
having problems with IPv6.  Here's the sort of thing I see in the logs,
note it gives no indication it's an IPv6 problem

Sep  7 16:12:59 turing postfix/smtpd[12487]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from
mail-lf0-x22c.google.com[2a00:1450:4010:c07::22c]: 451 4.3.5

problem; from=<kristian.fiskerstr...@sumptuouscapital.com>

This is a test someone did remotely

I've got around the problem by setting 'inet_protocols = ipv4' in
main.cf, but is there anywhere else (in any configuration file) that
IPv6 has to be addressed?

Thanks for looking
