The manpage for these programs do not mention main.cf. They do
however describe command-line options to select protocols.
smtp-sink listens on one port. To listen on both IPv4 and IPv6
ports:
smtp-sink -4 ...
smtp-sink -6 ...
This is a test program, so it does not get the same level of support
as non-test code. If someonme feels strongly about this they can
submit a manpage change, or they can send me code that duplicates
parts from the master daemon's connection management (build an
inet_addr_list; for each address in that list call inet_listen();
wait for events on all sockets returned by inet_listen(). Maybe
some of that can be encapsulated in library functions that can
also be called by the master daemon).
