In our IPv6 testing, we've found that postfix is unable to delivery to LMTP when running purely in IPv6 mode. All other aspects of postfix work just fine.

Here is an example from the log:

Jun 27 05:47:56 lb postfix/lmtp[32685]: BCD8720FE3: to=<ad...@lb.multinode1.zimbraqa.lab>, relay=none, delay=17237, delays=17236/0.03/0/0, dsn=4.4.3, status=deferred (Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=lb.multinode1.zimbraqa.lab type=AAAA: Host not found, try again)

However, the AAAA record exists:

root@lb:~# dig -t AAAA lb.multinode1.zimbraqa.lab

; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> -t AAAA lb.multinode1.zimbraqa.lab
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

lb.multinode1.zimbraqa.lab. 3600 IN     AAAA    fc00:10:112:16::155

;; MSG SIZE  rcvd: 72

If I switch "disable_dns_lookups" to yes, then delivery works.

What can be done on my end to debug this further? This is postfix 2.10 snapshot 2012/04/22
