So then, you're saying the behavior for ipv4 and ipv6 is somehow different?

If you start spamd without specifying the IP addresses to listen on, spamd will listen on the 127.0.0.1 IP address only.

You should have the IO::Socket::INET6 and Socket6 Perl modules installed to have IPv6 support in spamd. You can start spamd as follows:

spamd -i 2001:DB8:1:1::1

spamd only allows connections from 127:0.0.1. You can allow connections from other IP addresses with the -A parameter. You may have to patch Mail::SpamAssassin::NetSet. See https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=4964

Additionally, even when I get this working, I am unable to specify ipv6 addresses to -A, either with or without square brackets.

That part of the code is IPv4 specific.
