This specifies what protocols Postfix will use when it makes or accepts network connections, and also controls what DNS lookups Postfix will use when it makes network connections.
/etc/postfix/main.cf: # You must stop/start Postfix after changing this parameter. inet_protocols = ipv4 (DEFAULT: enable IPv4 only) inet_protocols = all (enable IPv4, and IPv6 if supported) inet_protocols = ipv4, ipv6 (enable both IPv4 and IPv6) inet_protocols = ipv6 (enable IPv6 only) By default, Postfix uses IPv4 only, because most systems aren't attached to an IPv6 network.
