Why do you think this hasn't worked? The line I indicate there
is for IPv4 mapped addresses in IPv6 (RFC r6052). ie. it says that IPv4
mapped addresses have the highest precedence out of all of the IPv6
routable blocks.
For your original problem, where sendmail is asking for an AAAA record
for an MX -- you're seeing a sequence of queries where sendmail asks
first for the MX and then an AAAA record but no explicit query for an A
record?
This is not necessarily ignoring the A record: if you look up an MX,
usually an A record will be returned in the Additional section. eg:
rufus:~:% dig infracaninophile.co.uk IN MX
; <<>> DiG 9.8.4-P2 <<>> infracaninophile.co.uk IN MX
;; global options: +cmd

so no separate query for the A record required. (This behaviour appears
to be OS/resolver dependent: on another host that happens to be runnign
Linux, I see the A and AAAA records for the domain name servers in the
Additional section, rather than the A (or AAAA) records for the MX.
Perhaps it's more to do with the version of bind (or unbound or
whatever) you're using as your recursive resolver rather than anything
else.)
Cheers,
Matthew
